"Color Splash Garden" by Karen Kay Buckley won Second Place - Wall Quilts: Movable Machine Quilted at Paducah 2024.

This quilt certainly makes a colorful "splash" when you see it for the first time. Color Splash Garden by Karen Kay Buckley won Second Place - Wall Quilts: Movable Machine Quilted (Sponsored by Juki America, Inc.) at AQS QuiltWeek Paducah 2024. Filled to the brim with a dazzling array of colorful fabrics, Karen's quilt gets its name from the creative design choices she made. Surrounded by a rainbow leaf border, the fabric then becomes black, but Karen has quilted the roots and flowers of her garden with white thread which grow into the collective of crazy colorful plants in the center. Karen's quilt also took home First Place - Innovative at Pacific International Quilt Festival 2023.
