The Quilt Show Puzzle: "Mariposa" by Julia McLeod

Do a puzzle of Julia McLeod's quilt, Mariposa.

 

Mariposa started life as a tablecloth that Julia found at an Oakland white elephant sale. Julia believes the tablecloth is from around the 1920s, and she appliquéd a large Mariposa Lily in the center and added the silk border to frame it. With this quilt, as with her other work, Julia likes to take the material she has found out from the dusty drawer where it was kept and bring it into the light of day to be appreciated.

Gorgeous Quilt! My server wouldn't load the small picture this morning but I was still able to finish the puzzle within 30 minutes. This is the first time I have ever done a puzzle without looking at the picture...only by colors and shapes. I might just start doing that each day just to enjoy the experience a little longer. I used to do the 300 piece puzzle but had to stop as I aged and got a smaller monitor! Now do the 100 rotating piece each morning. I loved this one! Such a surprise when I finished.
