It’s the first time I participate in the festival. As a first quilt, I decided to add my Windmill quilt to the Quilt Photographers category. I did this quilt for the Madrona Road Challenge organized by The Modern Quilt Guild. If you want to know a little more about this quilt, read these posts: here and here.
Below is a picture of it after piecing the top. It is one of my favorite pictures I took in the past year. And it is the reason I decided to submit this quilt in the Quilters Photography category. It was taken from the back. I just love the sunlight that we see coming through. It really shows how the quilt was pieced.
Finally, here is a little close-up showing the quilting lines.
For me, taking a photography is part of the creative process in making a quilt or other sewing projects. It is the part I get to share it with you! And I really enjoy taking the time to make a setup for featuring it. I have a good reflex camera, but besides that I don’t have a lot of equipment. Until now, I took most of my photos at my place. In the future, I definitely want to go out more to find some locations that would offer great setup for taking quilts photography.
I loved this when I saw it in the Madrona Road Challenge, and I love the photo you submitted for the festival!
Thanks a lot Casey! I had fun designing this one for the challenge and taking pictures of it.
I love this quilt and your photographs really are beautiful. Great entry!
Beautiful quilt, and wonderful photography. I am so happy you entered
I love that quilt! And I love how many people who participated in that challenge were inspired by that herringbone print…
Lovely photography!

Beautiful quilt. Love the colours!
Loves your modern quilts, the color selection for this quilt are gorgeous.
Thank you so much. For this, I used the fat-eights from the Madrona Road collection provided by Michael Miller for the challenge organized by the MQG. For the negative space, I used some Kona in Medium Gray. I had fun designing this quilt.
