Antonia Hering's quilt represents a more surreal view of the animal kingdom than one would normally see. Winning First Place Innovative Appliqué at Houston in 2012, Dreamtime displays it's animals in more abstract way. With creatures more indigenous to the outback, like the platypus and kangaroo, than the African savanna, Antonia's quilt gives off a more playful vibe while still featuring exquisite appliqué (just look at the hundreds, if not thousands, of tiny circles in the background) and design.

Dreamtime by Antonia Hering won First Place Innovative Appliqué at the International Quilt Festival in Houston 2012.

How did she ever make so many perfect circles and then arrange them so perfectly on the quilt? Awesome quilt!

The animals are captured perfectly and the colors are just what one might find in the Outback.

Beautiful. It is playful with such a strong aboriginal look to the design and use of colors.
