“Champagne and Caviar” WINS 2nd PLACE!!!
I was thrilled for my first entry EVER to win a 2nd place ribbon over the weekend! What a treat! Entered in the new, VINTAGE category, at UQSM, in Sandy, UT.
The front quilting really created a wholecloth on the back of the quilt. LOVE IT!
And that second green ribbon? Even more super thrilled because it was for, “Teacher of the Year”! Let’s just say I had a great weekend! Thanks to all of you who follow my journey!

Thanks Linda, up close and personal is so much better! I think all quilts don’t show in photos like they do in person. Thanks again!

Congrats Kelly, It’s a wonderful quilt. I wondered yesterday what that other big ribbon was for, now I can read it. Aren’t you going to tell us about your Teacher of the Year Award? or is that for another post? What an honor. Now I will have to take a class with you since you’re such a big shot 🙂

Thanks Karen! Well, it was Teacher of the Year. Don’t know what else to say except it was a HUGE shock and I loved it! I don’t see it as a “big shot” ;), just an honor. Thanks again!

I’m am so thrilled for you, Kelly!! Having watched over your shoulder (virtually) for years, I know full well how much went into this gorgeous creation. You certainly deserved those awards. I have learned SO much from you, via your blog & FB posts.
Are there plans still in the works for you to come to the Millersburg/Sugar Creek areas of Ohio? I’d love to get to take a class from you if you’re coming to that area.

Thank you SO much! We all need people watching over us 😉 Many thanks for following. Nothing has materialized for teaching there, yet! I just need a shop or guild to hire me and I’ll be there. I’m sure one day it will happen!
