This is Ami Krenzel's quilt, Echoes of Spring. It was the second place winner in the category Small Innovative pieced and/or appliquéd quilts.
Ami had blogged about it as she made it, so I recognized it immediately. Of course, it is even better in person. I love those organic improvisational curves and all that fabulous quilting.

Here's Ami's other quilt from the show, in the same category, Into the Woods.
Each day in June, I am sharing photos and observations from the Fiber Arts Fiesta that took place in Albuquerque May 21-23.
When I looked at may blog roll this morning I saw my quilt! It was really fun to see my quilts hanging in the show. I really enjoyed creating them from a set of ideas and watch them come to life.
ReplyDeleteThe design is certainly wonderfully organic, but I especially like the beautiful quilting and the way that the same fabric used in different places is quilted with the same pattern.
ReplyDeleteThe quilting...yum! It looks like Ami quilted a different design in each of the colors in the first quilt. Love the second one too. I can see the bits of forest through the trunks and branches of the trees. Thanks for sharing these. Very inspirational.
