Merit awards

I had a great day at the RCQ Exhibition.  I got a merit award on one of my challenges and a merit award for my 12" x 12"s If you check out Lyn's Blog you will see all the challenge quilts.  I will not have time to blog for the next couple of days I am a bit tired, I am demonstrating free motion quilting on a treadle sewing machine all weekend.  Please go check out t Lyns Blog.

Happy Quilting everyone!!!!!!

My RCQ Quilt Exhibition Challenges



Here are my three challenges I did for the Rose City Quilters celebration exhibition the theme is "30 years"
I think it will be OK to post these now as they are hung with names on at the quilt exhibition now!!!!
I popped in to the exhibition as it was being hung to take a treadle sewing machine in as I am going to demonstrate free motion quilting at the show for the 3 days it is on.  I will have some quilt sandwiches made up so if there is anyone wanting to have a go they can!!!!!!

12 12x12's

Here are the 12x12 art pieces I did last year I am getting them ready for RCQ Exhibition 7th 8th and 9th of September in Palmerston North.  I still have to put velcro on the back of other quilts for display as well. I only wish my cough would go so I had more energy to get everything done in time.  I have some challenge entries but cannot post photo's until after the exhibition.
