2014 Wilkes Quilt Show, Won Three Ribbons!


It was a wonderful weekend for me at the Wilkes Quilters 2014 Annual Quilt Show. Two of my three entries won a total of three ribbons. My BEE HAPPY Quilt won "Best Machine Quilting" from the Quilt Judge. I used a loose free motion meander with some loop de loops here and there.
Happy dance here. BEE HAPPY is a pattern by Lori Holt of Bee In My Bonnet.


Those attending the quilt show were given a ballot to vote for their favorite quilt in each category. The BEE HAPPY quilt won a Third Place ribbon. More happy dancing.


My Bonnie Hunter 2013/2014 Celtic Solstice Mystery Quilt won a Blue Ribbon! Wild happy dancing here.

A batik wall hanging, Full House made with a Schnibbles Pattern, was my third entry. It didn't win, but several people liked it and asked about the pattern.
It was a most excellent day for me. I was pleased with how well my bright, colorful entries did this year.

Congratulations times three -- I think your Celtic Solstice is one of the most striking ones I've seen. Well done!!

Congratulations!!! It doesn't surprise me at all. It's especially nice that the three quilts are very different styles. The Celtic Solstice quilt is absolutely amazing. The Lori Holt quilt is bright and happy and the batik houses feature great colors. I'll bet the library patrons will really enjoy seeing your quilt.

Sheila, you are a successful Lady! I've missed a lot, I guess! Congratulations! ;))) Both, Bee Happy and the Mystery Quilt are great works, but I always will love your Full House Quilt ... It has a great color-combination ... lively ... the red sashing and the red inner border seem harmonious and warm ... In my eyes you have done a great job with it ... It is really wonderful ... I told you before ... ;)))
