The first contestant is the quilt I made for the swap. It's titled Lily Garden, Year One and commemorates my first year as a gardener and features three lilies, similar to the ones in my little lily bed, and 42 individually cut and appliqued blades of grass (yes, that's correct, 42 - not 41, not 43, but 42).
The second contestant is the quilt I made f
or Michele for our anniversary. It is titled Dragonfly Dance and features a dragonfly centerpiece and lots of little bugs and flowers, each on its own pieced background.

Michele's already voted for her quilt, but she might be just a bit biased. What do you think?
On a related note, once I enter one of these lovelies and voting starts, I'll let you know. The prizes wouldn't satisfy a voluptuary, but I think they are pretty great and I would love to win one of them. But, first, of course, I need your help to decide which one to enter!
i like them both. but i think i like the lilies better for the contest. you do such beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteTough choice...They both portray the nature theme well. I personally like Lily Garden, Year One. I think it's the color contrast and simplicity of design. I love the echo quilting as well. That would be my choice but as I said, it's pretty much a toss up as they are both gorgeous. Your swap partner and Michele are very lucky people.
ReplyDeleteHi Michelle, my vote goes to the Dragonfly. Good Luck
ReplyDeleteHi!! I vote for the Dragonfly!! It`s lovely!! The Lily quilt is very nice too....AnneK
ReplyDeleteI wish you could enter them both, but I am going for the the Lily quilt. Sorry Michele.
ReplyDeleteMichelle,
ReplyDeleteMy vote is for the Lily Garden quilt. I like flowers, not a gardener but I like flowers.
