My winning Challenge Quilt:

Above is a portion of my winning quilt in my local quilt guilds' 2001 quilt challenge! Just by chance, Simply Quilts chose to air our quilt guild and the quilt challenge that year, so this quilt made it on TV.

The rules as I remember them were:

• The theme was: A Quilt Odessey
• We were given a piece of the paisley fabric which we were to make dominent in the quilt
• The quilt could not be larger than 40 inches in diameter

Here is a view of the complete quilt -

I can't believe I can't find a picture of the whole quilt.  I will post one soon!
