Remember these excellent turmeric dyed swatches from last week?
This week, FPA put them to good use.

The Golden Triangle Quilt Guild is donating mini-art quilts
to the Starkville Arts Association scholarship auction,
and FPA designed and quilted an entry for the event:




 Prof. Rowam Haug leads the workshop:





Kim cuts the fabric into strips:



 



Can you spot FPA's hand-dyed fabrics?


Brittney sews the layers all together:


 Here I am, looking useful!


Turmeric dye, front AND back!
 Nice intuitive quilting, Brittney!




 Hand stitched binding:


Corner pockets for the dowel rod:


Ready to hang:


What a beauty!
 

The Mini-Quilt theme is "Seasons".
There was much debate as to the season
represented in the FPA quilt.
Some say Summer; others say Fall.
I vote "Late August".
