Fiesta Fireworks–2014 Blogger’s Quilt Festival

 I’m joining the Spring 2014 Blogger’s Quilt Festival sponsored by Amy’s Creative Side.
Spring '14 Blogger's Quilt Festival - AmysCreativeSide.com
Twice a year we get to enjoy an online quilt show from our own home hosted by Amy.
I have picked “Fiesta Fireworks” for my entry this time.
Fiesta Fireworks-f

It has a woeful tale of not meeting the requirements of the challenge it was created for. I should have paid more attention to the fine print. You can read about it HERE and HERE.

It was made to be a quilt of “Celebration.”

“Yes, they shall sing of the ways of the Lord and joyfully celebrate His mighty acts, for great is the glory of the Lord.” –Psalm 138:5 (Amplified Bible)

And I just learned this week that it has been juried into the AQS Quilt Show in Charlotte, SC.

Yes! Let’s celebrate!
