In The Beginning Challenge Fabric - Eclectic Garden

Eclectic Garden
(pattern 1EG-2)

Designed by Jason Yenter

New this year was the Fabric Challenge sponsored by In the Beginning Fabrics. The rules were simple: use a recognizable amount of the challenge fabric on the front of the quilt. Quilts were to be constructed of three layers of fabric and quilted by hand, machine or both. They could be any pattern, design or method of construction. The finished pieces measured 18 inches x 18 inches and were on display at the 2011 Pacific West Quilt Show in Tacoma, WA. We hope that you will be inspired by their imagination and creativity!

The blue in the challenge fabric inspired me to see if I could paint my model’s face with the undertones to portray her in a regal, ethereal way. Beads, acrylics and trapunto.

In the beginning, did the seeds of life arrive on a comet? Commercial cottons, polyester batting, beads.
