TQS/AAQI Challenge 2012

[Renata L.]

Your AAQI quilts are wonderful, Rita and the quilting is delicious--Ireland looks so green and beautiful. You're on the fast track!

[Maryjo K.]

Rita I love the photo quilt and I think the sad little beach shack "Waiting for Summer to Return" is just darling!

[Nancy R.]

Rita - Both of your quilts are wonderful! And we are definitely on the same wavelength. I have a couple of photos that I'm planning on making into AAQI quilts. You are just always ahead of me in getting them made!!

Nancy

[Nancy R.]

Thanks Shirley! I think I have just registered one of them 4 times by mistake! :roll: Diane, if you see this, I am only registering two quilts and sorry if I mess up the system. ops:

LOL - happens to the best of us!

[Rita C.]

Nancy, that's because I don't have the day job to go to! LOL (I just spent all day vacuuming up cobwebs and dust all over the house. Where do they come from? :roll:

Diane, I am glad I am not alone.

Thanks everybody for the kind comments. Renata, Ireland is very green - it's from all the rain. :| Rosemary, it's the new machine, Patricia, she just loves to FMQ.

[quote="Reetzbobeetz"]I have made two more quilts for AAQI. The first one is a fabric print of a photo I took of Gallarus Oratory in Co. Kerry. I quilted over the photo and it has given it a sort of 3D effect. The second one was made with an extra spool by Christine Tindall (don't know her TQS name). My son thinks it's too sad and that nobody will buy it! It's called 'Waiting for summer to return'. I am going to register them now.



The quilts are lovely!

[Aileen K.]

Beautiful quilts Rita! I actually lthink the "Waiting For Summer To Return" quilt is very cute and fun. 8)
Hope you don't mind if I "borrow" your :idea: . I have some great pictures from México that can make good little quilts and will give me an opportunity to practice fmq.

[Rita C.]

Thanks Aileen.

Limbania, please feel free to use any idea of mine - mi casa, su casa so to speak.

[Norma H.]

[Rita C.]

Thanks Rita

[Lotti D.]

Rita, I love both your quilts. And your son is soooooo wrong! I soooooooooooo hope the little beach shack will not go to Houston... If it makes it onto the sales website, I very much hope to get a hold of it - that little guy has my name all over it!

[Roseanne M.]

lol :lol:
Agree!!
I thought of you as soon as I saw that sweet beach hut baby, Lotti.

It makes me very happy that I bought your birdy quilt, Rita!

[Rita C.]

Glad you like it Lotti and Roseanne. And thanks Roseanne I am glad you like the birdy quilt. Lotti, I was sorry to read that you haven't been well. I do hope you are on the mend now?

[Annette R.]

Whoo Hoo!!!!!!! Just checked the AAQI site and three of my quilts are going to Houston. They are #10133 - The Leaves are Falling From My Memory which I dedicated to my husband, #10134 - Occasional Sparks in My Fading Chain of Memories which is dedicated to my Mom, and #10135 - Love Lived which is dedicated to my friends Doris and George. I am really pumped. I always make jokes about needing to quilt well enough to send a quilt to Houston. Well, low and behold, it will happen. Sure it is not juried (except by Ammi) and it is not quite the same as a large quilt but I can honestly say I HAVE A QUILT IN HOUSTON----- not only that - three!!!!! How cool is that? Hugs to all, Ann
