My Version of an Art Quilt

On January 2, I started to create my version of an art quilt.  I've been invited to enter a couple quilts in a Veterans Art Show coming up this spring.  I worked steadily and I have it all completed.  The quilting is by Sid Mooney.  My second quilt in as many months.  I feel I am making a good start on 2020, from a quilting perspective.
Title:  What's New.
In March, I expect to get two more of my unfinished quilts completed and get started on the quilt I have been meaning to make for my aunt.  It is shaping up to be an exciting year!  Let's see how it goes!

First UFO Challenge Quilt Completed!

I am feeling not too bad about my progress on my UFO list for 2020.  I have one UFO at the quilter's, getting quilted.  The one I have completed, I quilted myself.  I just used my home machine and quilted horizontal lines across it.  
It is a really long quilt for someone who is very tall.  It turns out that someone is my cousin nephew, Jeff.  It is so long, we needed a ladder to hold it up, but then the lighting was not right.  I took it outside and folded it and draped it over one of our Adirondack chairs.  The Spumoni II is the one I got finished first:
