Color and Creativity in Colorado

Oh my.   It seems that Colorado is a hot bed of quilt activity.  On my recent trip there, I got to meet a lot of wonderful quilters, teach a class, and learn about the many quilt events going on.  Wow, those folks stay busy!

Our Double Reverse Applique class was lots of fun.  Everyone was very attentive and they mastered the technique quickly.

They jumped right in and made excellent progress.

Some concentration was required.

The results were awesome!

 It’s always fun to see the great variety produced even though everyone had the same pattern and supply list.  Check out the creative colors and fabrics.

Anne was one of several people who finished both the apple and pear in class.  She used coordinating silk fabrics and black organza for the shadow.  Very effective!

Quite a few pears were finished in the afternoon, but I didn’t get a picture of all of them.  Everyone’s work was terrific!
