I created this quilt for the "Put a Roof Over Our Head" quilting contest for Alliance For American Quilts in Spring 2006.

I was living in the mountains at the time and liked the idea of doing a landscape. As the idea evolved I began to picture myself standing on a porch, looking out over the mountainous landscape. My real life front porch looked out onto a garden and a driveway at the time. Not exactly picturesque!

This quilt was made using Ann Holmes's No Sewing Until You Quilt It method of french fusible applique.
