We invited a new girl to our guild last week.
Wendy Kittelson
This is is her FIRST quilt.
RIDICULOUS.....that's all I can say.
I think we are going to be learning alot from her!!
She started with...as she says....some Walmart fabrics
made her horse head...
All with just a pinterest picture for inspiration
Terry Whitman quilted it for her.
Terry 'suggested' a flange and Wendy pulled it off!!
She does have a quilting Aunt but none the less!!
She did a spectacular job!!
She only owned it a couple of weeks as it was auctioned off this weekend
at
Dr.Brown Auction in Oungre,Sk.
It went for a whopping 2,200$!!!
Super job, Wendy!
(but we are all scared now....going to have to up our game!!)

Wow, that "first quilt" is spectacular! Some people are just meant to be quilters!
ReplyDeleteIt is incredible! Wendy will surpass us in no time!!
DeleteThat is one great quilt and I love the photo of the horse looking at it.
ReplyDeleteI love how the horse looks like he approves!!
DeleteI'm wondering how Wendy will acquire the last name of Marcotte to REALLY be a part of your group. She's definately got the quilting talent needed.
ReplyDeleteWendy is definitely a natural!
