Rosettes at Great Northern Quilt Show Harrogate.

     

 

Last Thursday evening I got a lovely phonecall to say that "Just Doodling" had won the wholecloth award at the Great Northern Quilt Show. I had great plans to go over there on Sunday but unfortunately life got in the way and I missed it so I never got to see the show or my quilts.





                           This is a photo I took when it was just finished and some pictures of the quilt in progress.

                         

 

 

 

I was thrilled with the news but imagine my delight when I saw photos of "Just Doodling" and "Northern Spring" on Fiona's blog and saw the caption saying that it had got a rosette too-----looks as if maybe two of them! I was having a coffee whilst I was scrolling through and nearly swamped the keyboard with the surprise. :o)

 

 

 

A good surprise though-a really good start to the day. :o)

Postie called yesterday----

He delivered a large box full of all sorts of goodies won by "Northern Spring" at Uttoxeter last weekend. It was so exciting opening everything up and discovering what was there! Not showing too well are the large lengths of wide Moda backing and PFD fabric at the bottom of the hamper. Also missed off are two quilt border stencils and the engraved silver platter, certificate and red rosette!
Can you tell that I am one happy bunny? :o)

Quilt and Stitch Village have pictures and info on Facebook and also a video of the show on YouTube.   (Just click on the links to see them)
Next year's theme is "Lest We Forget"------ a theme that should evoke a lot of wonderful quilts. Start thinking of what you can do now.
