When we were researching Kathryn Zimmerman's quilt "Dogwood Winter" that was featured on Friday (click here), we saw that she won "Best of Show" at the North Carolina Quilt Symposium in May 2015. This quilt "Autumn Journey at White Oak caught our eye because it was her version of our TQS Block of the Month 2011 by Sue Garman called "Ruffled Roses". We have told you that the TQS Block of the Month's have won many prizes and this is a great example. She took the quilt and made it her own with rich orange-red ruched roses. (Don't you love the sound of the last sentence? Say it 5 times slowly "rich....orange-red....ruched roses...."). The quilting is by Brian Fackler and is amazing. Take a look.

12 Kits Left...(an award waiting for you?)

You can still create Sue Garman's last Block of the Month for TQS "Halo Medallion". The instructions & patterns are all ready for instant download (value $90) are free to Star members (cost $49/yr). We thought we were sold out but found 2 mismarked boxes of the Halo Medallion kits using Island Batik fabrics. The price was lowered to sell the last few at $178.50 rather than the original $287. We will hold the price for these last 12. Want an award of your own? Get the kit, make it your own, and enter it in your guild's next contest. Remember, you have to be or become a Star member to get the patterns (still a great deal).
