Do you remember this quilt ?
I was so happy when it was accepted in the Judged Show of the International Quilt Association, “A World of Beauty”, that takes place in Houston.
And it won a ribbon – an Honorable Mention in the Innovative Applique category.
A small award, but a HUGE encouragement!
We all make quilts because they make us happy, but it’s great to know that all the time and hard work you’ve put into your piece has been rewarded.
My hubby is proud of me!
You can see all the winners here.

I saw it from a distance and thought maybe someone made one copying you, then got up close and was so excited – out of the whole show, yours was the only name I knew. And yours was the only one that had no others at all like it, in even similar techniques. Good work!
