This original wholecloth quilt was inspired by a picture of a piece of lace designed by Anton Unger, Germany in 1898. I have redrawn this design, with artistic license, then quilted it on my longarm machine. The delicate design was then enhanced by Helen Stubbings of Hugs 'n' Kisses using her Colourque(R) technique. This quilt won a top 10 award at Paducah in 2007. The Brother Wall Machine Workmanship award.
It now resides in my studio on the farm .....and Helen also teaches Mini Lace workshops to students wanting to learn how to complete the colouring process. Our own wonderful Hermione Agee has digitised a scaled down version of this design that I then stitch out on my Intelliquilter computerised system so that all students have their pre quilted Mini Lace Quilt to colour in a class with Helen. You can view more details on Helen's website.
