Re-visiting a Bodil Gardner quilt from 10 years ago 12-03-17

I always enjoy Bodil's quilts and have previously posted several that have been shown at PIQF (check the sidebar for her name). She has such a sense of whimsy and an great eye for color.  This quilt came from the SAQA 2007 online auction.
 
"Lady with a Mug"  Bodil Gardner - Denmark  12"x12"  2007
Mostly cotton fabric.  Machine appliqued and quilted
She did not title the quilt, so I added my choice.
 

 

The dress fabric appears to be a recycle.
 
                            Bodil often includes a mug in her quilts - seems to fit almost anywhere.

She covers every edge with satin stitch.

A very sparse label, but it at least has her e-mail address.
There are two short "sleeves" instead of one that goes the width.

I've seen a good many pieces of hers and have enjoyed them all. It's nice to have this one in your collection.
