    Default Belated Congratulations to Swiss Granny_59 ... another Canadian Win! :)

    Yes, our dear sweet Swiss Granny_59 did it again ... another Canadian win at one of our Spring Fairs, last month.

    Another Red Ribbon for "Ayubovan" .... in the hand quilted applique class.
    This is the ever-popular mighty mini Dresden and Vines of the QB!
    (each of the Dresden blades is only 3/4" long!)
    (Reminder, that Red = First, in Canada!)

    And it gets better .... the Deluxe Purple Ribbon for Judge's Choice!!
    ... chosen by the Judge as favourite over all entries in all of the quilting classes.
    That's a prize of prizes to be won!!!!

    Plus a yellow ribbon ... for a specially sponsored class.

    I'm SO proud of Swiss
    Granny_59!!

    .... and I am ever-the-more honoured that she entrusted this beauty to me.
    My apologies for being so late in sharing this exciting news!!

    Yes ... from the centre circle to the point of the blade it's 3/4".
    The full plate is only 3-1/2".
    Whole quilt is all of 17-3/4"x22-1/2"!!!

    And it gets better ... she has done one that's even smaller ... I call this one a Micro-Mini!!!
