It was entered in the Balanced Pieced and Applique category. The pattern is Jen Kingwell's Green Tea and Sweet Beans, made primarily in Kaffe Fassett fabrics. Its name comes from the teal border fabric that features verses from Amazing Grace. I named it Amazing Grace for three reasons -- the border fabric design, the hymn Amazing Grace was my late mother-in-law's favorite song and she inspired me to quilt, and there are so many errors in this quilt that I need a lot of grace from those who appreciate it.

Placing the squares on point added more interest and the salmon piping helped unify the quilt by bringing the eye from the center square all the way out to the border.  Because the blocks were not exactly square, the swoopy border on the diamond worked well.  The quilting was done with my domestic machine on a Grace Cutie frame.

At the time, I had been following the work of Bethanne Nemesh with quilted mandalas on ice-dyed fabric, and wanted to try something similar. I was able to fit the challenge theme very nicely with that idea, by dividing the space into twenty sections. Next, what colors to choose? All of them! I used a beautiful silk charmeuse because I love the luster of silk. I also opted to use fabric paint (Pebeo Setasilk and Maribu silk) instead of dye because I had better control, and because that is what I had on hand. I drew out the entire design on vellum, incorporating my favorite design motifs- plumeria, pineapples, palm trees, and sea turtles, then \"tie painted\" the fabric so the color changes matched the rings in the design. Next was quilting the design on my wonderful Innova longarm. Since I wanted the quilting to be well defined, I chose to double the batting, using Soft\u0026amp;Bright layered over Warm\u0026amp;Natural. The turtles and their silhouettes are hand turn appliqué. To finish I used Inktense pencils, PearlEx powdered pigments, Jacquard colorless extender, and metallic gel pens to emphasize the motifs, and added about 800 Swarovski crystals for some sparkle.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis quilt has been juried into quilt competitions at IQF Houston 2021, Road to California 202s, and AQS Branson, MO 2022.

My daughter asked me to make a wall hanging using a couple of the butterflies, and the series was born!  The first piece features two large butterflies appliqued on a mocha solid.  I added a bit of color to the butterflies using Sharpies and rubbing alcohol.  I did a bit of trapunto work on the butterflies and free-motioned the piece on my sit down midarm.  It hangs in my daughter's bathroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe huge flowers left on the remnants of the shower curtain begged to be used next.  One was colored with Sharpies and rubbing alcohol in shades of purple, orange and yellow.  I appliqued it on a black background and free motioned it as well.  That wall hanging was accepted into the juried East Cobb Quilt Show in Marietta, GA.  It was also shown at the Georgia National Fair. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWhen our local arts guild called for \"green\" works of art for a special show, I created the next wall hanging using a flower from the same shower curtain.  It is my favorite in the series.  I applied color using Sharpies and rubbing alcohol, appliqued it to a lime green groung and then quilted it heavily.  That piece was donated to a local charit for auction and was purchased by a dear friend.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe final piece featured the last of the shower curtain butterflies.  For this wall hanging, I again applied color with Sharpies and rubbing alcohol but also added blades of grass in batiks to the purple background. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece was haning in my sewing room when we had a plumber replacing a toilet.  The plumber had informed me that he would charge $100 to dispose of the old commode, and I KNEW my husband wouldn't agree to that!  The plumber left a young apprentice to finish the job and within minutes, the apprentice had difficulties and needed the plumber's assistance to proceed. While he waited for his boss to return, he watched me sew and perused my work on the walls.  When he saw this particular wall hanging, he exclaimed, \"Ooh!  My mama would love that!  She has a butterfly tatoo that looks a lot like that butterfly!  Her birthday is today.\"  He asked the price, and I told him $75. The young man asked if I would hold it until he got paid at the end of the week  HIs mama deseserved to get her birthday gift that night, so I made this proposition to the apprentice:  \"You take that old commode with you when you leave, and you can HAVE the quilt for your mama!\"  It was a win-win!\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Valerie Duff \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eQuilter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Valerie Duff \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eYear Made:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2019 \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eOwned By:\u003c\/strong\u003e Various persons \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e NA \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eShows \u0026amp; Museums:\u003c\/strong\u003e East Cobb Quilt Show, Georgia National Fair \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAwards:\u003c\/strong\u003e NA \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valerie Duff","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54046489444627,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0918\/4575\/5155\/files\/27412-shower-curtain-series-91-1652911779_ceb0d447-b6ee-4d82-aa30-d562379a840d.jpg?v=1776145191"}],"url":"https:\/\/gallery.thequiltshow.com\/collections\/member-free-motion-quilting.oembed?page=9","provider":"The Quilt Show Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
