New Show--The Palm Tree challenge

My small group, The Rosie Quilter's, had a challenge to create a quilt based on a photo of a palm tree. We each started with the same photo and created our own version of what we saw in the photo. Our quilts are now hanging at Woodbury City Hall for the month of November. There is something very exciting about seeing your work hanging in a public place. I feel fortunate that we were able to have this opportunity. Here is a mini tour of our show.

First, the original photo we all used for our work.

Here are the individual works.(remember if you click on the photo, it will enlarge)

These are the photos taken at City Hall.


It was fun to do this challenge. What should we try next? Our small group is a spin off group from Minnesota Contemporary Quilters. Judy Lewis is also a member of our group but was unable to do this challenge, maybe the next time Judy?
Have a creative day
