Description This is a quilted wallhanging I made which took a first place at the Minnesota State Fair. Adding together the time spent thinking about and designing this quilt, finding the fabrics and actually making it, the 43 1/2" square wallhanging took one year to complete.



*EDIT: November 5th 2006: I'm happily surprised to have this quilt featured as a DD.
Many thanks to ~MN-Vixen for suggesting it and to `dedredhed for featuring it.

What an amazing piece of work- having done a little quilting myself, I know the many skills which went into this piece- I'm new to deviantart and this is going to be my first favourite!
