Bloggers’ Quilt Festival :: Spring 2012 :)

I am so very excited to be entering my quilt "Dusty's Owl" into the Bloggers' Quilt Festival over at Amy's Creative Side!
Since I have begun quilting almost three years ago, I have never entered anything into a contest or judging. 
I think it's about time!
Here it is: 
Dusty's Owl
I had a total blast making this one. I made it for my best friend, Dusty, for Christmas last year. Using some of her favorite colors I came up with this for her.
It is my design, I like to call it "Funky Fussy Cutting". 
Luckily, her hubs, Jon, is a master with the camera and got these beautiful shots of the quilt....

I have been blessed a lot lot lately with marrying the man of my dreams and having all our family and friends with us, plus having the best family ever, and having that one special friend that no matter how long it is before we talk to each other, we can always pick up from where we left off. I love you Dusty!

So, thank you very much for stopping by and sharing you thoughts with me about the quilt!!

    Very cool! Before I read the name, my first thought, no word of a lie, was "funky!"

    Darling! I love it! Black, yellow, gray with a random touch of red here and there . . . it's brilliant.
