Quilt Shot Block 154~ QOV Nat'l Sew Day 2023: Elkhorn Creek QOV

 

Elkhorn Creek QOV 2023 Mystery Quilt

Designed by Stella Crutcher

 

Last Sat was QOVF 2023 QOV National Sew Day.

Some from our group met at the local KY Extension Office

and put together a Mystery Quilt designed by our member, Stella.

It was actually for last year, but we got snowed out.

In the background you see the TV set up to watch

 our QOVF President at 1:00 EST.

 

A design wall brought in by Karen & set up

so we could place our pieces like we thought they would lay.

It was fun to watch this puzzle grow.

At this point we had 2 large 18 inch squares that wouldn't fit.

Had to rearrange.

It took about 5 minds to work together.

 

Then I forgot to take a final picture.

But I was the one that volunteered to take the pieces home

and put the top together.

It took about 2 hours,

because Stella designed it

so big chunks were left to sew together.

 Actually 3 by the time I took rest stops to fiddle with other things.

A blue border is to be added

before its sent to the quilter.

I think it turned out great.
