{"product_id":"my-blue-ridge-home","title":"My Blue Ridge Home","description":"Hand appliqued quilt based off of Sarah Fielke's 2023 BOM, Homeward Bound\u003cp\u003eMy quilt guild, The Blue Ridge Quilter's Guild, challenged us to make a quilt to celebrate our 40th anniversary. The quilt needed to have either gladiolas or nasturtiums, contain the color ruby and have something that represented \"40\". When I saw this year's BOM, I thought it would be perfect since it included gladiolas. I decided that the \"40\" would be represented by my 40 year old fabric stash; all the fabric used was from that.  The center of the quilt is Sarah's pattern. I added the outside border depicting the Blue Ridge Mountains and my favorite dragonflies. This is my first applique quilt. The applique is all needleturn. I did the quilting on my longarm. Double batted, wool over 80\/20. Monofilament thread was used to ditch around applique, 100wt thread used for all other quilting. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shirley Ratliff \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eQuilter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shirley Ratliff \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eYear Made:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023 \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eOwned By:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shirley Ratliff \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65 x 65 inches \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eShows \u0026amp; Museums:\u003c\/strong\u003e NA \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAwards:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1st place in Guild Challenge \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shirley Ratliff","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54046434722067,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0918\/4575\/5155\/files\/28040-my-blue-ridge-home-44-1692625071.jpg?v=1776144708","url":"https:\/\/gallery.thequiltshow.com\/products\/my-blue-ridge-home","provider":"The Quilt Show Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
