I've been missing in action lately. Not for any good reason, just haven't had much to post about.
I feel like I should always add a photo to any blog post I make so here is today's.
This quilt was made for a QuiltArt challenge called Why Is The Sky Blue?
When the challenge was announced I immediately thought about the beautiful cobalt blue Skyy Vodka bottles. I requested, and was granted, permission from Skyy Vodka to use images of the bottles in my quilt. It turned out to be harder to execute than I thought it would be originally. Probably because I used all sorts of non-traditional quilt fabrics. The orange background is rayon. The bottles are made out of satin, velvet, and lame' among other things.
