More to show!

More great works from the quilt show.




Can I brag just a little bit? Here is the bag that I made when I tested a pattern for Stephanie. I got a third place ribbon for it.
This little wall hanging brought a honorable mention ribbon and a second ribbon which was for Best Hand Applique! A big surprise!
Here are my ribbons. Aren't they cool? The theme of the show was Piecing Generations Together thus the tree, similar to a family tree.
You must go here and check out my friend Patti's quilt. She is in the applique bee and was one of my students. I will let you read about her quilt on the site. I am so proud of her.
With Passion,
Carrie P.
