The Quilt Show Puzzle: "Lilies of the Valley" by Sarah Ann Smith
Do a puzzle of Sarah Ann Smith's quilt, Lilies of the Valley.
Sarah Ann begins her series of "celebrating the ordinary" with her quilt Lilies of the Valley, which also celebrates her life in Maine. She says, "Every time I see my Lilies of the Valley I am reminded when a friend and her adult daughter, who grew up and lives in Germany, visited while they were in bloom some years back. In German, they are called "Maiblumen," or May blooms. I love that, I love their perfectly smooth seamless blossoms nodding gently in the breeze, I love how the leaves curl and wrap themselves around the blooms. I love how in autumn the blooms become crimson and orange little fruits, a late season surprise."
