     "Summer Memories" by mknavy90

Mary enjoys quilting with her daughter, morning walks and NASCAR.  She wanted to remember this summer in a quilt journal.  As it happened she and her daughter were able to attend a taping of The Quilt Show in La Veta, Colorado which featured Jean Wells as the guest artist.  Seeing Jean's nature inspired portrait quilts an idea for her journal came to mind. 

Mary decided to make her own portrait quilt capturing images of the flowers she saw every morning on her walk and the techniques she had just learned from Jean Wells. The quilt featured above is the result.  What a great way to celebrate a special time.  Do you have a quilt that holds special memories for you?
