I found out today that my Vortex quilt was accept to QuiltCon 2018! QuiltCon is a large quilt show presented by The Modern Quilt Guild (MQG)Organization, and will be held in Pasadena in February. I am pretty excited! And I was already Registered to attend the conference somI get to see it in person….
I was wanting to blog about this quilt till I heard from MQG. I really thought it would be a QuiltCon reject post….π
Anyways , here it is…..<<
tarted this quilt at QuiltCon 2017 in a class taught by Victoria Findlay Wolfe!<<
was a class on improve, but with structure! And I loved the class! I finished piecing the quilt at a retreat I was at in March. And I Quilted it this fall. It was on my frame for here weeks, and I worked at it pretty steady during those three weeks….
Here are a few close ups I took while quilting it….

ad so much fun coming up with different ways to quilt the same shapes! Too much fun!!! πππ
That is really terrific and congrats on the Quiltcon acceptance.
Beautiful work! I wondered if you ditch your whole quilt first?
No I ditch the area I can reach in one pass. Then I quilt that area. Then I advance and ditch the next pass, etc. I do not like to,ditch the whole quilt first because as it rolls up with only ditching it gets wrinkles in the top…..
