........will have to wait 'til another day until I can post the picture. The organizer of the challenge has to get clearance from the book publisher before anyone can post pics of their quilts.
Some of you know I have been working on the Beatles challenge this summer. 2014 marks the 50th anniversary of the Beatles coming to America! YES..... I SAID 50 YEARS! Donna Desoto organized this challenge and asked quilt artists to choose a Beatles song and interpret it in the form of an art quilt. She plans to publish a book with the submissions and possibly take the quilts on the road to be exhibited in various venues across the US.
I had a number of songs I wanted to use but I came to the game late and they had all been taken before I even heard about the challenge. From the list of available songs, I noticed the first 10-20 I listened to were love songs. YUCK! Not something I could do easily. So I kept reading lyrics and found just the song that would work for me. I had a lot of fun making the quilt and when you see it, you'll see why. Sorry, I just can't post a picture just yet, but it is coming soon!
