The challenge involved interpret the elements – Air, Fire, Water, Earth – in any way you wish in a quilt that must measure 150cm high x 50cm wide. This is an unusual size for a quilt. I chose Air and I wanted to show the idea of the weightlessness of air. It didn't turn out the way I was hoping but since I was doing it I have entered it anyway. It tlooks more like a thunderstorm than weightless air so I called it "There's a Storm in the air". It is my first time of entering a NANZQ challenge so I have entered it in the rookie class. I'm going to be brave and post a detail piccy:

Great job! What kind of fabric did you use?
Ciao Helen,
As I opened the post and saw the picture, I thought: "It must be an 'angry' sky!" .......and it really was!
Very nice!
ciao ciao
Very intriguing. You will have to show us the full quilt, after the show.
I haven't been brave enough to enter a quilt at any show. How nice that you are. Definitely looks like a storm to me as well - I look forward to seeing a pic of the whole thing.
I really like deadlines too, although I have let a couple of them pass me by.
Helen! that looks great! well done you for finishing and i can't wait to see the whole thing. Please let me know when you get confirmation of entry received and i'll ask my downunder office admin (jennifer) to see if i have a letter from them too. I think confirmation of acceptance is due before we return and even winners may be announced before we get back as well. Good Luck!
