Right off, Happy New Year to everyone!👹
I am a big fan of Google Analytics. It revealed this blog's top post for 2025 ai-impacting-quilt-design was from March 2024. There, I entered a prompt in an AI generator of "an abstract quilt depicting food realistic" from the 2024 California State Fair description of "Almost Edible" in the Crafts Special Contests category. My interpretation of a cupcake wasn't selected. Beading and all, I still love it. 💗
I didn't enter the special crafts competition in 2025 because the prompt was "Action Sports."
I will definitely run that prompt again when the Fair posts its 2026 prompt for that category. One reason I enter that category is hoping for less competition. From the time of the posting of the prompt to fair submission is 3 months or less.
Art quilts are another category I have entered with modest success as honorable mentions. I know enough not to compete against fantastical quilters, these were entered in the fiber art category. Another of my popular posts this year is the-encounter-abstract-in-fabric, an art quilt from 2018.
If I decide to complete another art quilt, 1950s abstract painting by Ney might be my inspiration.
There is also the Amador County Fair scheduled in the months to come. A special crafts prompt might be posted for that event. I will keep you posted.
