2nd Place Winner "MyTown & Country Quilt II" by Shirley Guier

Capt'n John thought the correct name for this quilt should be "Persistence". "My Town & Country Quilt II" is 84" x 84" and is a Block of the Day quilt that has 365 blocks. The Design Source is from Susan-Claire Mayfield, the Gourmet Quilter. Shirley's stitching is beautiful and she used Machine Appliqué, Digitized embroidery, Machine Embroidery, Machine Piecing and Free-Motion Quilting. We included lots of close ups for you.

Take a look.

OMG this is amazing. I thank you for showing a close up, I was trying to figure out which was machine embroidery or applique. At first I thought fussy cut and where did she get the fabric. Amazing

"Persistence". My dear friend, Shirley Guier, finished two of these quilts in the same year. One in blues and one in browns. The quilts are indeed special because they are personalized with blocks about her family and the community. "Persistence I" and "Persistence II" :-)

Such beautiful, precision work! Every block is amazing, but the whole quilt all together is a stunning display of the best in the quilting art.

I noticed on her website she is starting another BOM to follow along with. I love Susan at Gourmet Quilting. She and Laura at SewEasy and Jenny at Missouri Star are just so easy to follow. Then there is the Queen of it all, Eleanor Burns.

These ladies all keep me so inspired and I learn so many neat tricks to try.
