The Dragon Quilt

The Quilt -- for the 2007 school quilt, we chose a blue and white antique fabric puzzle with a dragon appliqued over it for our theme.

Initially, we set out to find fabrics:






And then arrange them -- I like to call this one "Do ya see the vision?"





Putting the "puzzle" together, we've added the paper dragon template.








And finally, our bold beloved dragon is ready to be appliqued on top.













Appliqued, quilted, bordered, and binded -- just a few stitches left to completion, and 2 weeks ahead of when we'll be auctioning it off.






Over 30 people worked on this, and 1 person (not me) did the lion's share (the dragon's share?) of the work. What an incredible woman!
