Jackie Got Into Aunt Millie's Garden was Jackie Aguilar's first attempt at needleturn applique, yes, her first attempt. She writes,

"Never having done any needleturn appliqué before, at the end of the first block I wondered what I had gotten myself into. Focusing on one piece at a time, this quilt was a lesson in patience and fortitude. Several stressful events occurred while I was working on this quilt and I found that the appliqué was a relaxing escape. Three years and countless hours later, I had it done."

Design Source: Aunt Millie's Garden from Piece O'Cake Designs.

The quilt is needleturn appliquéd, machine pieced, trapuntoed, embellished, and quilted on a domestic machine.  

It is a multiple award-winning quilt, including Bed Quilts: 1st Entry in an AQS Paducah Contest 3rd Place ribbon at AQS QuiltWeek Paducah 2013.
