    I always enjoy these quilt shows. Thanks for sharing. YOur entries were great! I think I liked the dog one best. I just needed a little humor today!

    Weeeellll... I entered, but I felt like 'chopped liver' amidst the great competition. It was fun just to participate.

    It did. It was the best of show at the International Quilt Festival in Houston in 2016. Said it took her a year to make and had over 8400 pieces!

    No doubt! But it was time she will be well compensated for. She will make a ton of prize money in all the shows it visits!
