Saturday Night Salsa Karen makes contemporary art quilts and hand-dyes many of her own fabrics. Karen says: "The bad fabric we were given to work with made this salsa fest quilt challenge even more of a challenge than most. But when I cut the fabric up, eating salsa became dancing salsa, and I enjoy the result: a hot Saturday night, complete with dancing peppers and howling dog." |

Serenity Sindy and her husband do a wide variety of interesting magical crafts. Sindy says: "The magic here was in the form of stress-relief from this year's brutal winter in New England. I put this one in my bedroom, so I can wake up to a warm sunrise and cleanse the winter away!" |

Catemplation Sindy took a photo of Majix contemplating this quilt. See the larger image page to view the photo. Sindy says: "I just finished this quilt for my sister for Christmas 2000. She has a black cat named Shady Lady, and her home revolves around black cat figures. Right after I finished the quilt, I hung it up to take a picture, and my cat Majix sat for quite a while, staring at it in appreciation." |

Jennifer is a Halloween addict. Jennifer says: "It was either quilt or write, and I had all these scraps, so I made a pumpkin. Halloween has always been a magical time for me. My guinea pigs would eat this quilt if I left it on the ground for a week." |

Water Sprite Sharon wants all her quilts to provide an atmosphere of security, caring, comfort, and contentment. Sharon says: "I made this quilt after spending some time with my youngest niece and remembering how enthralling fairies and other mystical beings are to young girls." |
Until you send me a picture of your magical quilt
and an explanation of why it's magical,
that's the end of the Gallery stroll.
I hope to see your quilt here soon!
