First Prize!

23 July 2015

Well today I had a win! I won 1st prize in the Amateur Traditional category at Victorian Quilters Showcase 2015.

Now so this is my 2nd blue ribbon win I have crossed the line to be classed professional. The bar has been raised further.

I am stoked! It’s not normally me to do a quilt like this but it is a love of Paula Nadelstern’s Kaleidoscope quilts and all her work, fabrics,  that it was a must for me to start this in 2010 and finally finish it this year. Then the decision to put it in a show and win a prize!
