After years and years of collecting and saving and finding the fabric...
"Oz" did it!
The Wizard of Oz Quilt that I made for my sister has been gifted!
Yes, she did love it, which makes me very happy.
I should explain, I tried to follow the sequence of the movie by starting with sepia, the I made a rainbow to signify arriving in Oz, then back to sepia when she arrived home.
On with the show!

I DO need to mention, boy was I in a hurry to get the photographed and wrapped.
These pictures are just plain bad!!
So sorry....
First time putting a block on the back but I just did not want to leave this picture off the quilt.
WHEW!!!
Do you feel like watching the movie now, LOL!
Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend.

Totally awesome!
I've been waiting to see the finished product! Love the blue you added for the background. Now I'll have to drag out my yardage and do something with it. My son has been the tin man twice and the lion once in a local annual production. Love it!
Yeah!! You know, I never cared for OZ, I am not the norm I guess.
Brilliant, Jane. What a wonderful way to showcase Oz. I'm betting your sis was "over the rainbow" with happiness to receive it.
Happy New Year!
Good for you...what a super quilt! You did an awesome job! Your sister must have been so happy receiving this special quilt!
you are such a nice sister. I haven't watched Wizard of Oz in years, and yes, seeing your quilt makes me want to hunt it down for a movie night.
love it!
What a job to organize the scenes and lay it all out in sequence and to turn it all into a quilt. Well done Jane.
Nice blog... thanks for sharing with us..

Wonderful treasure and so very colorful - great work and the rainbow was the perfect addition. Not in Kansas anymore for sure!!! judy c
I always loved that movie and your quilt totally catches the whole story. Great job!
One of the best movies of all time and did it justice with this quilt! I particularly LOVE that rainbow you put it (in a very appropriate crossover moment)!
What a thoughtful gift!
wow! i have enjoyed watching your progress and it turned out gorgeous! i love the color sequence and the rainbow is just marvelous! your sister is a lucky girl!
I love how you followed the color tones of the movie and brought out the rainbows!! The creative details really makes your piece a 'Heel clicker"! Beautiful and fun!!
Terrific journey and yes, I want to see the movie again :) The scarecrow was always my favorite guy!
Your quilt is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo amazing!!
Beautiful, love it. My 40+ daughter would love this. She collects Oz. This would be great! You are supper to make your sister such a gift. Would like to find out how to transfer pictures to cloth. Do I need a special ink for my printer? Thanks for the help.
Fantastic!! It's no surprise to me that she would love it. =D
The color changes just like in the movie is a wonderful idea, Jane! It is a very special quilt and will definitely hold a special place in its new home.
I just love this quilt! Clever girl. I'm sure your sister adores it.
Wonderful, Jane. I can see gobs of thought being put into this quilt. What did you use for printing off the pictures OR are they all a fabric line? What a lucky sister!
