Blogger's Quilt Festival!

It's time for the Blogger's Quilt Festival again!  Perfect timing, since I recently finished this sweet little wall hanging.  And, she's a winner!  At HMQS last week in Salt Lake City, Isabella's Bonnets placed 2nd in the RBD Design Challenge.  Then, she and the other 26 quilts in the competition were sold at auction, raising an amazing $6,900 for this year's charity, Family Promise.

 "Isabella's Bonnets" 46" x 50" Wall Hanging by Deonn Stott
(Patterns are now available!  Order HERE or HERE for digital copy.)

Love this fabric for this turn-of-the-century-style quilt.  The fabric itself gave great clues as to how I should design, embellish then free-motion quilt it.  Tried for a wallpaper look in the background.
