I took some outdoor photos of the quilt when I was at the lake giving the gift (D GodD lives at the lake), so I took some photos. Thought you might like to see some closeups of the final blocks.Today I sent the application to enter it into the ECQG Show in September. I'll let you know if they accept it.

How convenient to have a black & white boat as a back drop. The photos are good, but still don't do the shoes justice, as the embellishments are lost. Does the application have a place where you can write that aspect of the description? Surely the total uniqueness of the quilt has merit for show acceptance. I'm among the fans waiting for the September results.

Jeannie, it turned so awesome! I am so pleased that you shared this whole process with us. It was fun to watch each shoe come to life! Now, when are you going to start selling them? I am waiting...patiently! I am still your biggest fan!

This turned out to be the most adorable quilt ever. I think you should enter it in a contest. Thank you for the previous pics you sent to me on the first few shoes. This is so awesome !!!
