Robin 64 Posted May 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 I should say that I didn't have many quilts to compete with in the baby quilt category. There weren't many quilts entered as most of the gals said when they make baby quilts they give them away. The bed quilt category however had some pretty awesome competition so I am pretty tickled with that. And the quilt show was great advertising for me as my name was on many many quilts as the quilte.r I was handstitching by the side lines as kind of a demo thing and I had a name tag on and quite a few gals said "Oh, you're Robin. I saw your name on many quilts" and I gave out a few gals my infor. So, great exposure. All in all a great weekend for me. Now, I have to get back to work as I have four quilts due by the end of May!

Robin 64 Posted May 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 Madelyn, Thanks. I will get you the info on the quilt pattern. I didn't work on this one this year as I had quilted the guild quilt the last two years and took and year off! I will find out, tho, and get you the info. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JudyLynn 5 Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 The guild raffle quilt is 'STARBURST' BY Derek Lockwood. The guild members from Wolf Point MT put the quilt together, and Della Gardner owner of the Plaid Square Quilt Store in Glasgow MT, CUSTOM quilted it for us. She did a beautiful job on the quilting, using a varigated blue thread and in a few places a tan thread. It was a bit of a challenging quilt to do, but some that worked on it, now want to try to do one of their own. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
