Golden, Golden Days, 88 x 88", by Ann Zemke

Golden, Golden Days was featured in a special exhibit titled Ann Zemke: One-Woman Hand Piecing & Hand Applique Renaissance for All About Color Quilting.  Based on a pattern by Jen Kingwell, the applique blocks and circle borders were created using the freezer paper prepared applique method.


The pieced blocks and diamond borders were created using a plastic template, tracing the back of the fabric piece, cutting a 1/4" seam allowance and then hand piecing into a block.  The four patches and blocks were machine pieced together. The finished creation was custom quilted with a wool batt over a cotton batt with ruler work, free motion and digitized designs.
