Memory Pouch

Last year the 2QAQ (art quilt) Committee spent some time with Barb Cowan, a brilliant machine quilter.  She generously shared her time and expertise so that we would understand more about what goes into long arm quilting.  We were allowed a little "play" on her machine.  The resulting sample was painted by Sue Dennis - a well known art quilter.  The sample was cut up and  a piece given to each of us on the Committee.

Sooo - this precious piece of fabric was now mine - but what to do with it?

Here is the result - I have only used half of the piece I was given, so making another pouch is in my future.  I love that it has all these memories, and that many hands have been involved....
