Koi In The Pond Quilt

 It was wonderful to walk around

with camera in hand

 viewing

all the beautiful quilts at the 

Tucson Quilters Guild Show

My eye was drawn to 

Koi In The Pond

a group quilt made by The Honeybees

as a donation to 

Quilt For A Cause

I have a friend fighting 

Breast Cancer right now and was particularly moved

by the generosity of this group.

 Pattern: Fractured by Kathy Doughty

from September 2009 Issue Down Under Quilts

Machine Quilted by Arlys Bjorke

 The blue and white fabrics are from Japan, 

including some Kimono fabrics

 The addition of 

little spots of 

novelty fabrics

with orange fish,

 and the embroidered Koi

contributed by Judy Smith

were well placed 

and brought brightness to the quilt.

Nice job ladies!

and thank you :)

 

*I feel so honored!

Wow!

Very nice to see such a nice version of Fractured...a wonderful interpretation! Kathy Doughty
