Two more blocks for the True Colours QAL hosted by the Canadian Quilters Guild. Both of these were designed by Corey Follett.

This quilt is called β€œMiserable Ghost or Disappointed Toast?” and it was juried into QuiltCon 2023, (and Quilt Canada 2022 where it won the appliquΓ© award).
If you are on IG, search #inkblotquilt to see how these shapes came to be, and read the comments to see what people saw in them πŸ˜‚

With QuiltCon 2025 around the corner, I’m resharing the quilts I’ve had hang in past shows.
While this one was a group effort by my guild, the Victoria MQG for QuiltCon’s Community Outreach Challenge, I designed and quilted it, AND it made it onto the cover of QuiltCon 2022 Magazine!

This is Amish Quilt Study, and it was juried into QuiltCon 2021.
I really admire Amish quilts and find them quite beautiful, so I thought it would be an interesting exercise to take various elements of traditional Amish quilts and combine them all into one piece.
It currently hangs in my bedroom 😊
