Based on Tula Pink's City Sampler, Pam Raby created Sundown Cityscape not knowing how she was going to quilt it. Only when she dove headfirst in without a plan did inspiration strike and another fabulous quilt was born.

You can learn from Pam in Show 2703.

Using her Sequoia pattern, Pam Raby made a red version of her Sequoia quilt and used a print instead of a solid to see how different the same quilt can be using different fabrics. She also incorporated more of her triangle-in-a-square blocks to pump up the border.

You can learn from Pam in Show 2703.

Karlyn Bue Lohrenz's quilt, The Monumental Way, helped her escape a long snowy winter. Here's what she has to say:

"I don't know how one could take a class or read a book of Katie Pasquini Masopust and not say "I have to try it"! Escaping from a very long, snow filled, cold winter I went to the Studio to create the warmth of the desert. Fallert's gradations gave life to my vision."

Karlyn's quilt won 3rd Place, Large Wall, Pictoral at AQS Paducah 2012.
