Featured Quilt - Two BOM Designers, One Great Quilt
The Quilt Show member Annette Logan Miller was inspired to created her quilt, Color My World Naturally, by two of our Block Of the Month creators, Wendy Williams and Becky Goldsmith. She used the 2021 BOM, Color My World, as a starting point, and watched Becky's show to create her Dresden Flowers. As Annette puts it, "I used the TQS 2021 BOM Color My World mariner's compass and drafted wedge shapes from the first ring of small houses. The dresden flowers were inspired from Becky Goldsmith's show and I used applipops for the dresden centers. I was trying to use fabric I had, so the yellow is scrappy."

In The Store - Flying Geese "Foundation by the Yard"
Get Perfectly Pieced Flying Geese
As seen on Show 2902 with Julia McLeod, Julia used Flying Geese Foundation by the Yard from Benartex Fabrics to make a gorgeous quilt out of silk ties.
Foundation by the Yard panels are designed to make your quilting more precise, less stressful, and as creatively different as you are!
Joen writes about her quilt, "Memories of Monet combines two traditional blocks that I could use to create four-pointed stars, diagonal lattices, and illusionary circles. The fabric combination was inspired by a Monet garden fabric that was featured in each star block; hence the name."
