"Blue Gratitude" by Jennifer Broemel won Meghan Fernandes' Judges Choice Award at Quiltcon 2022.

Artist Statement: "This piece is included in my Rhythm series. Each piece in the series is an exploration of process, color, pattern and movement. I am allowing instinct to guide me to experiment with layers of colored cloths that I have readily available. I am allowing myself time, time to take them, to transform them, through movement and pattern, mine and eventually the viewers, to become, continually, something new. I am seeing each in a new way as I place an additional layer, an embroidered pattern, that adds an additional rhythm to the piece creating a dance of color and light."

Techniques: Machine Pieced, Hand Embroidered, Machine Quilted without a frame (domestic)
