Quilt Alliance Contest 2014

My entry for the Quilt Alliance contest for 2014.  "True Love" - Inspired by "Two Weddings and an Amish Quilt" by Elizabeth Ann Miller Bontrager from 1955, Record 16-33-40 in the Quilt Index.  You can view my entry here on the Quilt Alliance site, and see the quilt that my DWW was inspired by. Based on the time honored traditional quilt pattern, the double wedding ring, I created my own version.  Using a Sizzix large circle die, and text from my own line, I inserted words into the rings that to me encapsulate the store of true love in my own life.

Detail

Zipper trim is sewn on the outer edge of the quilt, and the outer edges of the circles.
