Description: Sue
created this small quilt for her mother's 80th birthday.
She wrote the following: "I only used the photos
that I'd somehow gotten from her over the years,
so it wasn't as representative of her life as I
wanted it to be, but have since gotten a whole album
of photos (now that it's no longer a surprise!)
that I can use to make another! ...
I looked at lots of other memory quilts in books
and on the web to get ideas as to how to do this,
but really wanted to make it look like an album,
so created this design. I am sure I got the idea
for the black squares in the corners elsewhere (
so it looks like the way photos used to be put into
REAL albums), but I'm not sure ones I've seen had
them done the 3-D way I did (by backing the fabric
with another layer and turning right side out, then
tacking them in place with the black corners).
DO think the "book" was an original idea,
though - and I was able to use Quilt-Pro 2 to draw
the outer shape so it would look like a book and
then placed the photos on top of that (don't think
I could do that in EQ, at least I couldn't figure
out how to draw an unusual shape there!). I wanted
to use the striped fabric on the edges so it would
look like pages, and someone in the QP group was
kind enough to send directions on how to turn the
striped fabric in the library on its side so I could
have it running in both directions at the same time!

- Sue created the above quilt for her Eastside Quilters
Guild Challenge celebrating their 5th Anniversary.
It's a fairly small (25" square) with the Samples
shown to left measuring 4" across. The original
ideas was to paper piece the reproductions of the
guilds raffle quilts in miniature but, Sue realized
that would be almost impossible on such a small scale,
so she decided to print them on muslin. Each printed
blocked was backed and sewn together like an envelope,
after turning them right side out, she machine quilted
each little block. The women holding the quilts were
appliqued down with fusible webbing. The women's hands
were used as the place to tack the quilts to the larger
quilt square. Sue was delighted when this little gem
won first place in the challenge!
