I'm in another theme contest with the Quilting Gallery this weekend.  The theme being Group Exchange Quilts.  If you find Keeping Kool worthy of a vote I'd love to have it.  Here is the link for this week's voting.  I know some of you had a difficult time voting when I did this once before.  I hope it is smoother this time.  You do have to scroll down a bit to find the voting buttons.  Voting starts Friday, September 28, 2012 at 8:00 a.m. (EDT) and last until the following Monday, October 1, 2012 at 8:00 a.m. (EDT).  You can also get to Quilting Gallery through the button/link on the right that's purple called Weekly Themed Quilt Contests then select the link "Continue Reading".  The theme that you'll be voting on is Group Exchange Quilts.

Keeping Kool
36 x 50
February 2012

Some of you may remember this group challenge, a Row Robin,  that was with Sunshine Quilt Guild in 2009.  I started it off with the Dancing Sea Gulls in November 2009 and six rows later in June 2010 I got it back.  Totally AWESOME!  Everyone was quite creative.  About half of the rows are 3-D.  The shorts have elastic waistbands, and the shirts have buttons.  There is so much going on with the sand/VW Van row you just have to enlarge the photo.  Kerry's Quilting is who I had quilt it in a stitch that was befitting what was going on in the row.  I finished it in February of this year. 

I'm quilt retreating this weekend!  Vote for Keeping Kool!
