About Me

My photo
Welcome to the Backwoods Art Quilts Blog! I have been drawing, sewing, painting, and quilting for many years, but fiber art is my passion. I love all the creative options available to the fiber artist - there are so many ways to express an idea, a cherished photo or a favorite memory! It combines all the creative ventures I've been doing all my life - as well as dyeing fabric and altering photos. There is so much more to learn and so many things to try! I will share my journey - much of which will be trial and error! as I continue to learn everything I can about fiber art! Please visit my Etsy site - http://www.etsy.com/shop/BackWoodsArtQuilts

Quilting Arts Greatest Pet Peeve Challenge

What seems like a long time ago now (last June) I created my Back Off Bozo quilt for the Quilting Arts Greatest Pet Peeve Challenge. Rules were: had to be 8.5 x 11, quilted with 3 layers, original design and depict one of your "pet peeves." Well mine is tailgating - so I just had to come up with a design. I don't own a convertible, but I have had truck drivers tailgating me - and it really aggravates me!  However, the surprise of having it appear in my favorite magazine was awesome!

So, if you haven't seen it this is my Pet Peeve Challenge Quilt as it appeared in the December 2011/January 2012 Quilting Arts magazine:
