Thank you

Thank you to everyone who voted for my Flower Garden table runner in the Online Bloggers' Quilt Festival.  There were many amazing quilts entered, and I'm humbled that mine would be voted the winner in the Applique category.



Thank you to Amy's Creative Side for running this festival twice a year.  It must be a big job to organise everything, including sponsors.

I was quite surprised at how many winners come from outside of USA.  There are quite a few from Poland this year, including the winner of the Viewers' Choice award, Gosia. You can see her quilt here. And you can visit all the winning entries from this page.

You don't have to be an amazing quilter to enter this competition.  You just need to take some photos of your quilts, write a blog post, and link up. The next festival will be in November/December, so I encourage you to start thinking now about which of your two quilts you will enter. They don't need to be new, they could be something you finished 2 years ago. They just need to be new to the competition.

Thanks again, Wendy

Well-deserved win!
Maybe one day I should enter. Not one of my quilts has ever been eligible for the local show (too old, long-arm quilted by someone not a member of the association ...).
