Oh, La, La - Heritage is Traveling to France

 Hello Everyone,

The emails were going back and forth to France on Wednesday after I was contacted by the editor of QuiltMania magazine.  They want to include my Heritage design in their January/February issue!

This version of Heritage was made by the Independence Hall Quilters (IHQ) of Arnold, CA.  The quilt was the 2019 scholarship quilt, and raffled off at the Quilt Show last October.  All the proceeds from the raffle ticket sales went to scholarships for graduating seniors from Bret Harte High School in Angels Camp, CA.  

I spent multiple days cutting fabric from my stash for each block. The guild members assembled the blocks during our work days, and we watched this beauty come together. 

We did a photoshoot at Ironstone Winery.  This is one of my favorite places to take pictures of completed quilts.

Here are some pictures taken of some of the blocks.

The quilt was beautifully machine quilted by Debra Coleman.

The winner of the quilt was contacted, and Lydia graciously consented to part with the quilt for a few months while it travels to France for a photoshoot.  Heritage will be packed up today, and head to finishing school in France.  It's been a whirlwind of a week!

Soon,

Lynn
