Habitat Challenge

When our St Louis MQG announced a challenge using Jay McCarroll's fabric line "Habitat" from Free Spirit, I knew I had to participate. You see Jay and I are close, BFF's. Okay, this is him posing with me at Quilt Market in 2008. I'm just one of the multitudes he posed with that day.


But that trip to Quilt Market really got me interested in working with modern designer fabrics. I came home enamored with Jay, Amy Butler, Anna Maria Horner, Patty Young and more. And as a big fan of Project Runway - I took this challenge.
We were only allowed to use "Habitat" fabric and solids. I was inspired by this quilt on Flickr and used Elizabeth Hartman's pattern Rain or Shine.
I did tons of quilting like the inspiration quilt and that took a bit of time!
I'm pretty pleased and I think Jay would be proud!
