Last week, I attached the borders to the center panel of my current quilt project. This milestone seemed the perfect opportunity for an update on this quilt.

Here are the last two sections in the center panel of my current quilt project. Sections 7 and 8 run vertically and horizontally along the edges and finally connect all the other sections together.

Time for another update on my current quilt project. Here is section 6, which serves primarily as a connector between sections 5 and 8.

I finished the appliqué on the center panel last week. This has sent me back into design mode as I furiously try to decide what will come next. What better time, then, to share two more sections from my current quilt project.

I’m still working on my goals for 2010, but it is certain that my current quilt project will be at the top of the list. The center panel is nearing completion, so I thought it was time to reveal a couple more sections.

Over the next months, I’ll be sharing my progress as I work on my current quilt project. I started the quilt in June 2009 and have made a fair bit of progress so far. Inspired by the words of John 15, the quilt will be a hand appliqued representation of vines, branches and fruit. This article will introduce my quilt, its theme, color scheme, and layout, and show you the first section in the center panel.

I am so excited that one of my block designs has been chosen for Quiltmaker’s Special Issue magazine featuring 100 blocks from today’s top designers. My block is called Spring Snowflake and it is made up of six tulips.
