Back to the Garden

Several years ago, I made a quilt called Garden of Pomegranates…adapted from a commercially available pattern.  Because I had to rush the quilting to meet a show deadline, the quilt did not live up to its potential.  Today it serves as a reminder to slow down, enjoy the process and give each quilt the time it deserves.  The new quilt, BACK TO THE GARDEN is really a do over.  Since it would be boring to make an identical quilt, I selected a different color scheme and fabrics; I changed the setting and reduced the scale to up the degree of difficulty.

Oh, my! John is so right! I know how hard it is to accept a quilt that is not "perfect" but I do hope that the first quilt will have a loving place in your home or someone else's life. No time is wasted on a quilt. It is a part of your love for the art. God bless you!

Any person who cannot appreciate the time and loving inspiration put into making your original quilt although not to your show standard is missing the true value of quilting.
Your original quilt is one of a kind, and deserves a special place in anyone's home.
