Blue Ridge Sunrise
As a brand new member, this is my first challenge. It's just 4x6, but it's my first experience using sheers, and I'm also just learning to quilt by machine. I was inspired by two things that have always fascinated me -- the delicate coloring of an early morning sky, and the magical Blue Ridge Mountains in NC, where my parents used to live. I used layers of organza to try to capture the look of the mountains. /Jill Williams

having been to the blue ridge mountains, i would say you have captured it very well. I love the rosy glow of a sunrise!
Hi Jill, so glad you could join us. This is lovely and calming with the delicate coloring and gentle curves. Good job!

I love the soft colours and the feeling of viewing the hills as they recede into the distance. Very nice!

Very effective layering and values for depth.
Hi Jill... welcome!
Glad you could do this, it is lovely.
You have definitely captured the Blue Ridge Mts. Before I even read your info they're what I immediately thought of. Beautiful.
