Civil war and a challenge

Wow, it's Sunday again and time for another block reveal.   This is block 4 from the Civil War Sampler book that I'm doing as a quilt-a-long with Karen.  The name of this blocks is "Catch me if you can".   Here's hoping that Karen is gonna give you the description.  :)

I belong to a group called Material Girls that meets every Monday.   Once a year a group challenge is put out for anyone who wants to participate. This year's theme was "Pinwheels". The only requirements for the challenge were that it had to have at least one traditional pinwheel (made from 4 half square triangles, and that it be quilted yourself.  

So, on with the show.  

#10 was mine.   I don't usually participate in the challenges because I don't want to quilt it myself, but this year I made a small quilt and just did some straight line quilting.  

After viewing them all, each person casts a vote for their favorite design and this year, Sue's Underground Railroad quilt won the top prize.   (Prizes were furnished by Anna from her de-cluttering)

This year, for the first time, there was an "unfinished" category.   These last 2 were in that category.  

These little blocks that Linda made were so tiny you wouldn't have believe it.  She won the "unfinished" category.  

As you can see, there's a lot of talent in the group.  


Next year's challege was decided and it's going to be Dresden Plates.   The only requirement for this one is that it has to have one full circle of a Dresden.   (and of course, quilt it yourself.  Bah humbug!)

See ya soon,
Hugs, Anne
