I meet once a month with my church quilt group. We make baby quilts for newborns and the nursery as well as our current projects. This quilt was made for our Woman's Retreat where it was raffled to support Woman's Ministries. Each quilter made several strips measuring the same length using their choice of bright colors but also incorporating black and white. When we came together it was magical.
My contribution was the zigzags and these 50"s girls. Our inspiration came from "Churn Dash II" in Collaborative Quilting by Freddy Moran and Gwen Marston.
Sue Martinez is our star applique quilter. She crafted these wonderful 50's motifs by hand.
