Then as I was heading up to the show, I heard from Elizabeth @eagould that my Home Away from Home had won a ribbon of its own .... First Place in the Small Pieced category. Matt was leaving that little tidbit as a surprise, and I admit, when I got the note from Elizabeth, I just started laughing!
The theme of the show was "It's Raining Quilts" which explains why the ribbons all had umbrellas on them!
I had entered one more quilt in the show - Follow the Dots. It was hanging with other modern quilts, many made by other members of Seattle MQG.

ReplyDeleteLove your quilts. Can you tell me where I can get the pattern for Morphing? My granddaughter and her fiance want me to make them one. Thank you so much.
ReplyDeleteSorry there was no email attached to your comment so hope you come back to see my response. But I'm pretty sure there IS no pattern. But it's composed of primarily half square triangles, so maybe you can create something similar.
