dtreusch Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 I don't post too often here, but I just had to share this with you. Many of you might remember the wholecloth quilt that I started several years ago and finished last fall. In the Des Moines show last fall the quilt was awarded Best of Show and Best Machine Quilting. Judges wrote on the comments sheet that they thought the quilt should be entered into Paducah. So I did. Well... I just learned today that the quilt was juried into Paducah!! I don't care if it doesn't win anything, I'm just excited and humbled to be part of the show. Debbi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember having it in a hotel room and looking at it with you. Is that when we came up with a name?? I'll post some pics tonight after I get home. I still have a note on my computer to call you from several months ago. Work has just been very, very busy lately. 50-70 hours per week then quilting on top of that. Sometimes I feel like a walking zombie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lnieland Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 That's great news. I saw it in Des Moines last fall and remember that I was blown away by it - and then I saw that it was yours, and liked it even more. Hope it does well in Paducah!

As I said on someone else's post, as far as I'm concerned, just getting a quilt accepted to Paducah is winning in my book. You do such lovely work, I'm so pleased for you.

quiltmonkey Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Ahhhh and there it is... ROMANCE...... Ooooh BABY! It's gorgeous! I really like your feathers and how you designed them to spring off of other feathers. Really eye catching! And, I love luv love luv LOVE all of the crystals;;; I'll bet it's super sparkly, shimmery and razzle-dazzling against the direct the lighting! Definitely an Eye popping; jaw dropping show stopping piece of art. You definitely Romanced them-there stones, girl! I know you have spent countless hours on this and it is a long time coming. Finally!! So proud of you Deb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
