Quilt from Thomas Contemporary Quilt Collection 05-28-23

This 12" square quilt was part of the SAQA online auction in 2014.  The  shapes and the color interested me and it was one of several I purchased that year.  Somehow I remember that Mary was a fairly new quiltmaker and a newish member of SAQA.  But I must be wrong, she won big at Quilt National - '23.

Quilt National - '23 at the Dairy Barn in Ohio opened this weekend  and the quilt that Mary submitted was selected as Best of Show.  It is a fairly large piece - perhaps six feet square.  Can't find any place that says, but in a picture with the maker it appears to be at least that large.
