    Default Ribbons on my Quilts at the County Fair!

    I am absolutely THRILLED to share this with all of you! I've posted pictures along the way of these quilts in various stages of construction, an here are the results:

    "Amethyst Sky" - A small appliqued and threadwork wall hanging
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]490131[/ATTACH]

    "Patches and Pinwheels" - A baby quilt
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]490132[/ATTACH]

    "Lime Twist" - A medium size wall hanging
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]490133[/ATTACH]

    "Red Tulips" - A quilted table runner
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]490134[/ATTACH]


    "Purple Star" - A quilted messenger bag
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]490135[/ATTACH]

    And last, but certainly not least, "Sapphire Star" --A large wall quilt with TONS of FMQing, some painted accents, over 2000 hand sewn beads,
    and the "Best of Show" Ribbon!!!
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]490136[/ATTACH]
    (and yes, that's me with that huge smile on my face)
    There are a few closeup pictures of this one here: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...r-t250869.html

    All of these pieces were done by me on a Juki 2010 sitting in a table. ;-)

    Wow! Gorgeous quilts! Every one deserves to be a winner. Hope everyone else who entered doesn't hate you too much. But you did leave the red and yellow ribbons for them to win. Giggle.
