Hi everyone! It’s Cindy here. Things have been a little quiet here for the past few weeks but there is a reason for it. I’ve been working on a quilt in order to get it ready for my quilt clubs big show the Genesee Valley QuiltFest. The quilt show starts tomorrow and runs through Sunday and tonight there was a members reception where they gave out the awards.
There are two types of ribbons that are given out. One set is for professionally judged quilts and the other set is for those judged by a group of quilt club members. I only have two quilts in this show and did not submit either one for professional judging.
I arrived at the reception a little late and they had already started giving out the “club” awards. Just a few minutes after I got to the reception area I was hearing the name of my small quilt and my name read aloud for a second place ribbon!
This quilt is about 48 inches x 24 inches and was made to put up in our living room. There is a lot to tell about how the quilt came together but I will leave that for another day. I didn’t expect to win any awards but I’m very thankful I did.
Very nice! And so lovely to see a little sewing project from you. Beautiful! Sam

It reminds us of old stained glass windows particularly two that were identical that were on either side of a fireplace in an old expensive home in the Hyde Park area of Nati City. Lee bus stop from high school was right in front of the home and she looked at those windows often. Congrats on the win your work be it the look like me dolls the knitting of quilting is always exceptional.
