This is the first block in Tula Pink's book of 100 modern blocks. I was reminded of this potential project when I saw Anne Gillihan's micro version of the quilt at the Clark County Quiltfest. In an attempt to prevent another long lapse in posting, I am going to be making and showing a new Tula block every day for 100 days ( or until I don't...probably...)
I have shown this quilt on this blog before from an earlier Clark County show, but this year Anne Gillihan was the featured artist...I mean...the astounding featured artist.
Another quilt at the show was a spool charm quilt where each of the spools was made with a different fabric. This quilt won a viewer's choice award because quilters' are apparently attracted to insanity. The judge did not give it an award because she could see the back.
The seahorse quilt also made its debut at the show.

Anne's work is amazing. I physically wasn't able to go to the show; but, a friend sent photos of your two quilts and we were impressed with both finishes! The mini bow ties are AMAZING!
I counted them. Well. Counted rows and columns and multiplied. 2688 blocks.
The back? Did the judge not understand that the front is the whole point?
(sorry. that was me. apparently my hermitting has made me forget how to leave comments...)
