Make it Modern

I am in charge of "Display and Competition" at York Heritage Quilt Guild  in Toronto  http://yhqg.org. As part of my portfolio  I have to develop  challenges for  guild members.  The great thing about being in charge of things is you get to choose the topics that are relevant to you.

I chose the theme "Make it Modern"; the idea being that you must take your old fabric stash and give it a modern look.  This appealed  to me for several reasons, I have a lot of old stash that I cannot bear to give away and I am in a dilemma because I am really starting to love  modern quilts.
I am proud to say I won a "Viewers Choice for my quilt and this is a  photo of it hanging  at Quilts at the Creek this past July. https://quiltsatthecreek.wordpress.com

This quilt is made entirely of old stash even the white background. It is the background and the quilting that gives the old fabric a new modern look.

I named this quilt "Everything Old is New Again"

Check back as I am starting  a series of  these  quilts and I will give you a sneak peak next week.
