Sally Menke's Whimsical Bicycle was created when "Two orphan Dresden blocks gave inspiration for this work that includes our favorite summer activities...bike rides, four-legged friends." Featured at Houston in 2017, Sally's quilt utilizes machine piecing, sashiko, and fabric weaving among other techniques. But, as her husband said, "bike tires with that many bumps would be really hard to ride."
Whimsical Bicycle by Sally Menke of Arcadia, Michigan was featured in the Innovative Appliqué category at Houston 2017.
Looking at it makes me smile.
What a cleaver way to implement the quilt blocks into it!
