It's about time I showed you more gorgeousness from the Houston International Quilt Festival, isn't it? How about a special exhibit? Every year
Hoffman Fabrics sponsors the
Hoffman Challenge. Quilters, doll makers, and clothing designers are invited to create original work using a selected fabric. I'm going to tour you around some of my personal favorites.
The camels in the third place appliqué winner,
Caravan by Nancy Dickey, have personality and fashion down pat.

The Best Incorporation of the Fabric-Pieced winner seems to have used the
Stack-n-Whack technique. The hexagons appear to fade off into the distance as they near the upper right corner.

Jars of Clay by Sharon L. Schlotzhauer received second place for appliqué.
For your reference, this is what the challenge fabric looked like.
