Konza Prairie Quilters' Guild |
December's Show and Tell was full of Christmas and Winter Spirit!
Betty Frank honored her great-niece, Chase, with a quilt of many horses. Chase completed the Wild Horse Youth Challenge sponsored by the Bureau of Land Management in Oklahoma. After the completion of the gentling and training of a yearling wild horse over a four month period, Chase chose to keep rather than sell her horse.
Once again, Karen Spaeth has used her magic to create a detailed Christmas wool applique' mini quilt. Zoom in to see the details.
Kathy Garvin's quilt evokes the winter forests with her wall hanging. Just as in a forest, trees of many colors and styles share common space.
Lori Gray's (center in photo) colorful Christmas stockings will provide ample room for Santa to leave surprises for her family.
Mimi Benedick shared a pair of mini quilts that illustrate another of her many talents. Mimi hand dyed the fabric for these thread-painted mini quilts. Exquisite!
Patty Nelson used one of Laura Piland's best-selling quilt patterns to create her version of Exploding Heart. I wonder how many pieces of fabric were used to make this beautiful quilt.
Sharon Johns has been busy in her sewing room making quilts for her grandsons. The aquatic quilt, Fish, is a design by McKenna Ryan. A new grandson will receive this sweet quilt of pastel blues and grays that feature cuddly gnomes in the center. His older brother will get the forest friends gathered around the campfire.
Tulsi Paudel Khanal has moved to Manhattan seven years ago when her husband was employed by K-State. She has become active with the World Friendship group, has been mentored by Beverly Holdren, and joined the guild. With the encouragement of Betty Frank, Tulsi is showing the bolster pillow that she made.
Vickie Greenwood also added to her holiday decor with a poinsettia themed table runner and wall hanging.
The quilt with interwoven squares was made by a mystery quilter. Please contact the editor to claim this colorful quilt.
