The QuiltCon 2018 raffle quilt, Full Circle, was designed by Hillary Goodwin and quilted by Rachael Dorr. It is a modern take on a log cabin block with inset circle piecing. The phenomenal quilting throughout the quilt enhances the original design to create a stunning quilting collaboration. While the piecing is quite minimalist, we were struck by the variety of quilting designs. See if you have a favorite. Don't forget to check out the back.

When Lindsey Neill visited QuiltCon 2017 she was inspired by all of the incredible quilts. As she learned more about the makers, she decided she wanted to create a reminder of why she continues to create and the joy that creating brings to her life. Her quilt, "Sewology" is her testament to the quilting community and their shared passion for sewing. It was exhibited at QuiltCon 2018.
We also think it has a really cool quilting design. It was quilted by Christina Lane.

We learned about Diane's quilt on Jinny Beyer's website: "Beauty Happiness, Family, Love,” began in a class with teacher Patricia McLaughlin where Diane learned to create a lifelike Japanese lady. From this, she created this beautiful and peaceful scene. She found patterns for the blocks from Kumiko Sudo’s Circles of the East with the Japanese symbols being found on the internet. This quilt was accepted into the International Quilt Festival in Houston in 2012."
