The Fabulous Fused Quilts of  Frieda Anderson
The deep, saturated colors of Frieda Anderson's quilts are evident in these fabulous, fused designs.  In Episode 705 - Tips, Techniques... and a Special Tribute, Frieda shared her work with TQS and demonstrated how to build a fusible applique design. The episode also included how to make a decorative-edged fused binding.  Put your sunglasses on, these quilts are bright and full of life.

Top 100 Puzzle - Stairway To Heaven - Unknown Amish Artist
You might need to say a little prayer to complete this puzzle.  It was created by an unknown Mid-western Amish artist back around 1930.  It is a Tumbling Blocks pattern set in a v-shaped step formation.  Interestingly, it was machine pieced and then hand-quilted.
