In my last post, I was being all neurotic about having 7 prize worthy quilts from my friends as overnight guests (spend-the-night guests of my two quilts...) in my livingroom, awaiting a 90 mile journey to the Sauder Village quilt show in Archbold, Ohio (click on "2011 quilt show winners" to at least see pictures of the first place quilt in every category - that will hold you until I post pictures I take on Friday evening).
Well, the show opened yesterday and runs through this Sunday, May 1. As I perused the list of ribbon winners on Facebook and the Sauder Village web site, I saw that 8 of the 9 quilts I took received ribbons, including 2 first place ribbons (woo hoo Cheryl for both of them!), 3 second place ribbons (yippee Mary J, Margit...and me!), 2 honorable mention ribbons (yahoo to Mary J for both of them!), and a Best of Show, Wall Hanging (shock and awe...mine!!).
I feel justified in my neurosis...LOL.
I go to the show on Friday, then will post lots of lovely eye candy...yum! There is a short video of highlights on the Sauder Village Facebook page, if you are interested, to tie you over until then.
In stitches,
Teresa :o)

Justified in a good way...when I read the title of the post I was so afraid something bad (like flooding...I am in Paducah after all!) had happened!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you all...sounds like a great show!
I told you my money was on All Around the Town! Can I pick a winner or what??? ~ Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! How exciting! You do such lovely work - I'm not the least bit surprised :0)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! From what you showed on your blog of its creation, your quilt was certain worthy. Would be wonderful to see it in person.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the links so we could share in the show.
Best of Show!!! Woo Hoo, that is awesome, but then it was a pretty awesome quilt, just so many fun things you put into it. I bet the judge just kept turning and turning it on all sides to be able to see everything. I would take that ribbon home and sleep with it under my pillow, who knows what quilty dreams it will inspire.
ReplyDeleteBig smile for you : )
