Featured Quilter at the 16th Annual Country Quilt Show of Prineville

 Sandy was the featured quilter at the Country quilt show this year. Although she and her husband have a busy life on the farm and have raised 3 boys...she makes time for quilting.  Her first quilt was made years ago as a 4H project.  There are no idle moments in Sandy's life as you can tell by the slide show.

Crook County Quilt Guild's Country Quilt Show 2011

      Here are a few of the quilts from the quilt show that was held in Prineville today.
This is a great optical illusion of waves in the quilt. It is all done by varying the size of the quilt pieces.
I really liked the theme and bright colors of this one.

This quilt featured a collection of Asian inspired fabrics.

Lots of hours of applique.

African inspired fabrics

Traditional Blocks

The colored striped triangles were made by sewing together a collection of selvages from different fabrics. The light blue squares are three dimensional puffs.

This one changes as you look at it close up and then move back farther and farther. The white pieces start to make wavy lines.    Cool!
