Crystal Radiance

Pieced & Quilted By:

Dawn Siden & Joyce Grafe

Description:

This quilt was designed by fussy cutting hundreds of “gems” from a 2018 Hoffman Challenge ‘Shine On” fabric. I just started laying out the appliqué shapes until I found a design that was appealing to me. Not only did I stitch around every appliqué with Sulky Holoshimmer, but I then painted many of the gems with Iridescent Medium for a little added sparkle. Shine On!
