Ribbon!

I put some quilts in the local show this weekend and look what I got!


I took first place in my category (pieced quilts over 245", professionally quilted), yippee! 
But the best was the judge's note, "meticulous workmanship."  I read that in the car after pick up last night and I was beaming.  I wanted to put the paper up on our fridge, but it's better to post it here.

It was a very good show over all, but made for a busy weekend.  I've got lots to catch up on, and after that, maybe a blog post on the quilt top I finished last week?
