Me and Judy Morningstar

Today Mr. Scraps came home with a quilt made by Manitoba quiltmaker/fabric artist Judy Morningstar.

He won this in a fundraising draw at his office. (I donated a tea cozy to the effort myself).

It's 20 by 21 inches, made with appliques and lots of exquisite machine stitching

and signed by the artist.

She doesn't have a blog or webpage that I can find, although you can google her work.

I've seen several exhibits of her work, and I know this one is part of a series she did with ethnic fabrics.

This one has a mola in the centre, and she's picked up the colours and shapes in the rest of the quilt.

Here's the back, another fun ethnic fabric.

Mr. Scraps spent $5 in tickets to win this beauty, along with another prize,

which included treats from Turkey, including a box of turkish delight

and a lovely paisley scarf in golds and rust.
