With Fall & cooler weather here in New England especially at night time...it's nice to cozy up in a handmade quilt..
So your challenge is to make a card with a quilt pattern.....there is many ideas on Pinterest...
Mine is called "Crazy Stitch" which you start in the middle of any shape and work around that shape.
Enter your quilt card by midnight 10/3 for a chance at a prize.
Card quilters:

Your fall colors and quilts make me want to crawl on a couch for a nap! Thanks for hosting!

These are great cards Terrie! Love your idea.

Terrie, what a fun challenge! I had a blast creating this card that I found that was similar on Pintrest and I had a very similar quilt design in my Silhouette library I modified it and cut the borders out of white card stock and then all the insides I cut from different scraps of designer paper and then inserted them like a puzzle. I embossed the background using a cable knit print which sort of fit the cooler weather. Cut some paper flowers added them along with a piece of a doily and there you have it. It was so much fun!

That is a fabulous quilt card, Barry! I love all the details you have in it.

Mine is not so detailed, but I had fun making it:

I had intended to put a border around my "quilt", but didn't want to add more layers, as it already has depth. You can't tell from the picture, but the center piece is popped up, as is the butterfly on the one panel/piece.

My mom prefers to make appliqued piece quilt blocks and then framing them! I did a paper pieced (appliqued) pumpkin inside a double frame!

Trudi, that is fantastic! I love that you did a different type of quilt, too.

You guys have been busy!

Barry, lovely take on the quilt card. Super sweet card.

Golda, your fall quilt is calling me to take it out to the campfire for some smores!

Trudi, awesome quilt card. Love your cute pumpkin!

Good timing on this challenge. I needed a thank you for my sister-in-law who quilts (and I'm home for 4 days!!!).

That's pretty Elaine! I like that you and Barry both did a full quilt on a card.
