Thoroughly Modern Icon - Made in a challenge; I received a "bag of stuff" from another member of my contemporary bee. I did not know who I was making it for, but assumed the Lady of Guadalupe motif on the fabric was important to her. It was quite a challenge to make a traditional saint into a contemporary quilt! The asymmetry, wacky borders and the tacked down plastic rosary helped.
