Central
Coast 2000 Quilt
The
Central Coast Quilt was created from February 1999 through April 2000 by
members of the San Luis Obispo quilting group known as Applique
Friends. Design and Construction Coordinators were Signe James and
LaDonna Christensen, who incorporated the major elements of the Central
Coast landscape into a design based on the shape of a Mission
bell. Borders were prepared by Collette Blair, June Fincher, Betsy
Lopresto, D.J. Martin, and Barbara Merony. Please see below
for thumbnail close-ups, and for an
identification key and credits for each of the quilt's smaller elements.

The Central Coast
Quilt has appeared in a number of regional and national shows, and
received an Honorable Mention award at the American Quilter's Society
show in Paducah, Kentucky, held in April 2001.
