I know it's been a while, but I survived the show and it was incredible. We made a record amount; and had a record number come
thru the door. Of course being back downtown in our hometown, on the beautiful waterfront, in a brand new, state of the art facility was key. Our homecoming; after the devastation of Hurricane Charley to our little town and now our re-birth. It was amazing!
It occurred to me, that I never posted pictures of the red/black and white quilt after I finally got it finished. As always, Don names my quilts. Well here it is..."Bye Bye Blackbird"
As you can see it won a 1st place ribbon. The Flamingos won a third, and my fishes an honorable mention. I also received ribbons for client quilts I quilted. In all I had a pretty good ribbon haul...2 firsts; 2 seconds; 2 thirds; and 4 honorable mentions. Thanks to my clients for trusting your treasures to me for quilting.
The photos are all '
clickable' for larger images.
I also have received lots of postcards, both from my
MQR swap and from the family swap over the last couple weeks...photos of those tomorrow.
For me, it's back to work tomorrow. Have a great night!

Congrats! We had a great time admiring all the beautiful quilts and then having lunch downtown.
ReplyDeleteWow, Deb, what a haul. I love that ghost bird (of paradise) with the crystals and that curved cross-hatching. Beautiful. Congrats on the ribbons. Now, get some rest.

ReplyDeleteDeb that is just gorgeous and it does rather remind me of a black bird with the 'feathered' look of the black and white fabric ..
ReplyDeleteLOVED your postcards that you've rec'd as well!
Yay, Deb!! Congrats! I knew you'd be haulin' in the ribbons.
ReplyDeleteI like this one but I agree with Barbara that I think my favorite is the Flamingo quilt. Congratulations on all the ribbons - I hope you get some sleep!
