My Garden Quilt Jo Bunker Auburn, Maine Jo's very close version of Rose Kretsinger's Paradise Garden won Viewer's Choice at the Maine Quilt Show in 2010. See Karen Kay Buckley's blogpost here for a detail http://www.karenkaybuckley.com/weblog/?p=1010 At the bottom of the page is a very long URL for a snapshot album of this quilt. Paradise in Kansas by Ilyse Moore When Ilyse Moore and I were working on our Garden quilt pattern book (See The Garden Quilt over on the left) I made a file of photos of recent quilts inspired by the original Garden quilt pictured in Ruth Finley's 1929 book. Several of these quilts have been prize winners at recent shows. Paradise Garden Thuy Nguyen Quilted by Naomi Gingerich 2005 Thuy's version is also very much like Rose Kretsinger's. She's reproduced several other Rose Kretsinger quilts.

Barber Rhode Island The Broderie Perse version of a Garden Quilt is on the cover of Barbara's 1997 book Broderie Perse from American Quilters Society. Barbara echoed the general construction of the Garden using the cut-out-chintz technique. Rose Garden Terri Doyle Gilbert, Arizona Terri also used Broderie Perse in her Rose Garden quilt, framing a basket of flowers with Rose Kretsinger's swag circle. The machine quilting, inspired by Rose Kretsinger's designs in spectacular. See a detail of Terri's quilt here: http://www.mqinnovations.com/QS09_Winner_Photos/100-Traditional%20Lg/TL2ND-3.jpg Some designers have taken the basic structure of the Garden quilt and gone off in new directions. Birds & Roses Pat Peters Hurricane, Utah Pat's medallion center includes some of the flowers but a different repeat. The corner structure is similar. I think I took this photo of Pat's quilt with its red ribbon at the 2010 Road to California show.
