This past year I have gone overboard with quilts for the Collection. But each one has been special. This quilt was part of a traveling SAQA exhibit that ended recently. Several years ago when the exhibit first started I cut out a picture and pinned it on my wall. So, when I saw the actual quilt was now available, how could I resist?
"Can This Be Me?" Bodil Gardner - Denmark 1999?
Cotton fabric, batting, thread, metallic net. Machine applique, machine quilting
The appliques are sewn down with zigzag on the background. After sandwiching the quilting is done with straight stitch on top of the zig-zag.
Two places have metallic net applied.
Lots of information, but no date or size. I'll have to add that information.

This is so fun!
I knew right away this was a Bodil Gardner quilt! I love her work, and am happy that this quilt found its “forever home” with you. Dottie
