Using the colors of the sunset as her inspiration, Leah Gravells created a stunning quilt she called Look to the West. Leah used 200 3/4" strips and the quilt-as-you-go method to create a work of art that is stunning in its beauty and simplicity.
 

The quilt was photographed at AQS QuiltWeek Phoenix 2016.

Yoshiko Katagiri's quilt, Life, is made up entirely of appliqué circles of different sizes. Measured at 79 1/2" x 79 1/2", we have no idea how many circles are in the quilt. Would you like to count?
 

 The quilt was on display as part of the Japanese Exhibit, Symphony of Colors, at the AQS Phoenix Quilt Show 2016.

TQS had a fun quilt created by Jan Magee named "Blooms for Julie". We created a kit for it. We need to find one of these kits that haven't been used yet. Do you have one you didn't work on? We will buy it back from you. Contact us at thequiltshow@gmail.com.

By the way, the pattern is still available free for all Star members.  Click Here.
