MarJen for Error - quilt

This quilt has got the most 'fame' of any of the ones I've made so far. It was shown in our Finnish quilt class show in a local craft center and a photo was in a local newspaper in 2007. I entered it on February 2009 to the Myrtle Beach Quilt Gala and for my big surprice it won the 1st prize in large quilts category and a "Best of Show" - I am still shocked, since there were so many other beautiful quilts.
This is my version of the Marti Mitchell and Jenny Haskins' quilt called 'MarJen for Error'. It has dresden plates and fans appliqued and a bunch of machine embroidery. I quilted this freemotion on my long arm Gammill quilter.
