Waiting for Sunset by Jen Mulder

Here's my entry for Hometown Pride - Waiting for Sunset.   I have created a simple afternoon landscape of a lake with nice blue skies.  We are viewing this from the University of Wisconsin Union Terrace. 

Waiitng for Sunset by Jen Mulder

The iconic terrace chair is empty in anticipation of friends and sunset.   It will be spectacular.   I have free-motion quilted the lake section with holographic thread so that it sparkles.     This quilt is 18 x 24.

I create in Madison, WI.

Created for the Project QUILTING Hometown Proud Challenge.

I grew up along Lake Erie in northeast Ohio. Many days of my childhood were spent at the beach, splashing in the water and playing in the sand.

Fall Focus by Meena S

I made “ Fall Focus” for the orange challenge. I used orange as the focal color for my design.

Fall Focus

I placed it on an orange background but the details got totally lost…so I put it on its complementary color.


Created for the “Orange October” off season challenge.

Hazard of Cooking on the Hot Pavement by Vicky L

Title: Hazard of Cooking on the Hot Pavement
Created for the “Summer Sizzle” Project QUILTING Challenge

Size : 23.5" x 18.5"

Techniques : fusible applique and fabric paint

As you experienced a little of the heat in Kansas, there is always the joke that "it's so hot, you could fry an egg on the sidewalk".

Hazard of cooking

So here is one of the hazards of frying eggs on the pavement.  My husband helped me paint the tire to put the print on the quilt.

Fourth of July by Claudia M

Fourth of July
When I saw the off season challenge for Summer Sizzle, I told myself no, just too busy!  After a couple days, I reconsidered.  I have wanted to make a summer piece for my hanger and decided Summer Sizzle says Fourth of July to me so I dug through my stash, made half square triangles ...

finished the binding at a quilt group meeting and have been enjoying it most of the month.  Thanks for the "push" Kim!
