Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Home

Style: Traditional


Materials

I took home three ribbons for my show quilts and thought my Craftsy friends would like to see why I haven't posted in so long. ha ha

What was your inspiration?

Hey guys! I got a third place for my Craftsy BOM quilt. Pretty good for a sampler. I got first for both other quilts, and Best track mounted machine quilting for one. Not too shabby! Go to my blog for a slideshow of the entire show, if you love looking at quilts. wazoonewsbits.blogspot.com

What are you most proud of?

I won something!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Don't ever be afraid to enter your quilts in shows. It is a great way to get unbiased feedback on your work. Even though sometimes the critique may be tough, it will help you improve. Besides, nobody sees it but you and the judge!

Congratulations on your ribbons! As always, I love your color schemes and apparently so did the judges. Such piecework, such detail.... I am kissing your ring, down on one knee [because the other knee hurts]. LOL :-) :-) :-)
