Another amazing month, another collection of 12″ x 12″ quiltlets on the wall at New Pieces. October’s theme was “Fall”, which could have been pretty straight forward for a lesser group of quilters.\u00c2\u00a0 The theme fabric was a yellow with a wood-grain pattern (sort of).\u00c2\u00a0 The results follow – the description is below each picture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

“The Fall”, by j. schon<\/p><\/div>\n

This piece, based on Milton’s “Paradise Lost”, illustrates Satan being thrown out of Heaven, and falling into the depths of Hell. The Angels are screen-printed on an appliqued background.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

“Fall”, by Judith Baker<\/p><\/div>\n

Judith used fused applique and pieced borders to catch fall leaves in mid-air.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

“Autumn”, by Candy Simonen<\/p><\/div>\n

“Autumn” is log-cabin pieced, with machine quilting that accentuates the single-point perspective.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

“Five Second Rule”, by Heather Jacobsen<\/p><\/div>\n

Heather used the theme fabric in over-sized candy corn, which is displayed as if it has fallen on the damp pavement, but hasn’t been on the ground long enough to collect germs — it’s still good!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

“Rain”, by Jane Voytek<\/p><\/div>\n

“Rain” combines piecing and machine stitching to make a dynamic, almost visceral piece.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

“New Englander Fall”, by Kathy Ritter<\/p><\/div>\n

Kathy presents leaves familiar to many of us who started on the East Coast. Oak, Maple, Tulip Poplar….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

“Yellow Falls”, by Lissa Miner<\/p><\/div>\n

Lissa’s piece has a third dimension made from stones and “fog”, and a llama, on a pieced and heavily hand-embroidered representation of\u00c2\u00a0 a fantasy waterfall.<\/p>\n

And the Winner is:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

“Fall – Or Summer Takes a Trip”, by Pat Mitchnick<\/p><\/div>\n

Log-cabin piecing, with a three-dimensional “Summer” tumbling down the stairs. Delightful and whimsical. Congratulations Pat, and thank you all for Playing!<\/p>\n

The November Challenge has now begun. The theme is “Bounty”, and the fabric can be seen on our Facebook Page<\/a> and “kits” are available at New Pieces. Deadline for November is 6:00pm on Friday, November 30, 2012. Have Fun!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
