Quilt top that I made at a Ricky Tims' convergence quilt workshop.  The top went together in a few hours.  Then I started quilting it from the back with a leaf pattern.

I chose to elaborate on a Ricky Timms design - to create this quilt. My fellow guild members voted it to be first place, which was quite an honor for me."

This year in the Fast Friday Fabric Challenge group, we were encouraged to work in a series for our challenges. I thought I would try to express abstract concepts in a "Spirit" series. The following quilts try to capture the spirit of various words or ideas: The "Spirit of Passion" was made using a new technique for me.
