Quilt Canada 2018

On my previous post I shared Fisherman's Wharf by Miguel. The piece by Kathy Bush, Penelope 

Woodwark, Vicki Dods, Barb Root, and Phillipa Zapf was based on a painting called Fisherman's Wharf by Miguel Freita.

 The yellow and blue fabrics were the only ones shared by all of the quilters.  The first section was done by Penelope Woodwark. If you look at the sky you can see a vertical seam that carries thru the red roof building and the boat. You can see a different red fabric for the roof, blue and white for the boat.

 Section two by Kathy Bush, notice the change in the yellow house and the red shutters.  The light pole is a bit narrower on the right than the left.

 Section three by Phillipa Zapf.  This time I figured it out with the red building with the black roof and blue shutters.

 Section four by Kathy Bush.  The join happens thru the white house with red roof.  Different greens in the tree and the red and black boat.

 Section 5 by Vicki Dods.  I was just so impressed with how almost seamless this team of quilters developed this piece.

 I shared this picture of the Best in Show quilt The Wet Spring of 2017 by Helen Fujiki.

 Friday I was able to get some closer pictures of this wonderful piece. She listed Home machine applique, piecing and quilting.

 Her machine quilting is amazing.

 I love her blend of solids and print fabrics.
