From the Vault - Dragonfly Quilt

Since I've been doing a lot of paper piecing lately, why not show you some of my old paper-pieced quilts?


This is my first one, made in 2002.  It's a small wall hanging, around 2' x 2'.




I learned how to paper piece in a class from a now-closed quilt store.  Back then I liked batiks and earthy colors.  I don't use either one any more.


I had a lot of Oriental fabric back then, too.  Not any longer.



Each dragonfly has eye color different from the other dragonflies.




Quilting was simple.  I did a double row in the border, then I stitched in the ditch around the dragonfly's body and wings.
