I have no pictures to post as I am waiting for a battery to arrive for my camera.

This week whilst Coneflowers is touring USA with the WQT2009 show I thought I would enter it in the competion at the Quilting Gallery. It is in the small quilts category.

If you click on the logo to the right it should take you there.

Yes of course I would really appreciate a vote but there are lots of other wonderful entries to choose from.

Fascinating to see all the different ideas and techniques

Exciting day!

First of all an email came in overnight to let me know that the two quilts I submitted have been juried into the World Quilt competition! I took a deep breath before I sent in the forms as I have never entered international competitions before! Apparently a record number of 28 quilts from 21 quilters will be travelling over the pond this year!
The quilts that will be going are "Coneflowers" and "Crazy Paisley Sampler".

The rest of the day saw me with a big grin on my face!

Then I got a phonecall from Grosvenor Exhibitions re. my entries in the National Quilt Championships at Sandown!
First of all I was told that "Coneflowers" had won the Machine Quilting Award and then just as I went to say goodbye Vicky told me that my entry into Batik Beauties had won First Prize!!!!

First prize is all sorts of goodies which I will show when they arrive.

Hopefully I will have a better picture of the quilt after the weekend but this is a little bit of it for now.

The quilt is called "Realm of the Seahorse".
