finished - after 3 years - will you vote for me?

Friends: After 3 years, I finally finished my Roseville Album. Well to be honest, I still need to finish the hand quilting on the very last, bottom block. But I am calling this a victory.

I have had my own blog for about a year and I found this great online blogger quilt festival at Amy's Creative Side.... and I entered Roseville into this festival. Will you go there and vote for me?

Go here and find my image, then click on the heart in the upper right hand corner to vote.  Very simple. That's it. You also might want to look around at all the fabulous quilts here... I heard there are over 650 entries!

Find this image to vote:



Here are a few other images for fun. These are also posted on my blog with more info about the festival and links to my other entries in the art quilt category: thirdfloorquilts.com




Thanks friends. It has been a long journey. So proud to have reached this point!

    1. Thanks Donna. Those leaves are wool. Some of the trees in the big blocks are also wool - raw edge. Gives it a different feel.

    1. Kim: That mean so much to me! Thanks so much for the kind words. I loved making this pattern... I changed up a bit as you can see. Lately I am making smaller quilts and doing free motion on the machine. But this is one I truly treasure and is all hand work! Thanks for the inspiration.

  12. I love seeing the way quilters have modified Kim's pattern. Your rick rack border is a standout, and using some wool was a great idea for all those little leaves.

  14. I love your quilt. I am not a Baltimore Album fan but I like yours, with very few white between scenes. And your colors are so unusual. I added your blog to my reading list.

    1. Wow. So cool. Thanks for the kind words and for reading!! This is quite a modern version of a Baltimore Album, which is what attracted me to it.
