Featured - Generation Q

I swear, this quilt has a life of its own! 
During its making, for the For the Love of Solids Swap, I was as challenged as I have ever been - by the use of only solids, by the design in my head for which a pattern didn't exist, by my own insecurity in making a "good enough" modern quilt for a secret partner I did not know.

And yet, when it was done, I was pleased - with myself, and with my quilt. And off it went to my partner, never to be seen again. But then, it popped again {here}, and lo and behold, today it is being featured on Generation Q {here}.

I am humbled and honored that a quilt I designed and made would be anybody's "quilt pick of the week". And yes, I am also inspired. . . to keep challenging myself. . . to continue seeking inspiration and comradery from those in the quilting community. . . to travel further on this quilting journey I enjoy so much.

    So cool Debbie! You totally deserve all that recognition and more! I agree with what he said about it having a "cream-sickle" feel to it!

    Good for you, Debbie! I loved that quilt from the first time I saw it...it's even better that you designed it yourself and for someone else!
