Challenge results

Thursday evening was our guild's challenge -- the one for which I made one of our Pat on the Hill's designs (it's this one ). I knew right away that I wanted to make this, so it's been finished since April. Anyway, we had the voting on Thursday, and my quilt placed third in the pieced category! :D I now have a lovely gift certificate to spend at my LQS, and I think I know already what I'm going to be looking at.



Thanks, Pat, for a beautiful design! :D


What beautiful work - and I just love the colours. Your quilting is amazing.

Omigosh, Sandy! That is beautiful! Many congrats on your win! There must have been some very steep competition for you to have placed third. It looks like a first place quilt to me!

Enjoy that gift certificate. :-)

Thanks, Michelle! The competition was actually pretty steep. A good friend of mine took first place, so I was delighted for her. :)

Thanks so much, Sharon. :) I do love that raspberry shade.

Well. Let's see. What can I do to be reasonable about your beautiful creation getting 3rd place? Putting my 'all huffy' attititude aside, I know! I hereby award you Viewer's Choice. No matter what the competition, you're the winner with us. Wow. That is just gorgeous. So there. Polly

LOL! Thanks, Jennell. :) I just rotate which ones I have hanging.

Thanks, Polly! Viewer's Choice is more than I'd ever hope for. :)

Just lovely Sandy! Pat's designs are such a delight to undertake; I must do another one this year. Congrats on the prize. Well done.

Cheers Bronnie

That's great Sandy! Well done. It's such a lovely interpretation of the design. What a lovely colour to choose to go with the black and white. So glad you got a worthwhile prize. . In message , Sandy writes

Ah, no! don't even think about it >g< Roberta, you rascally stirrer! You gals just enjoy them. . In message , Roberta writes

I really doubt that a FQ could begin to "repay" Pat for her generosity in sharing these patterns in her book -- or, for that matter, for her generosity in sharing her knowledge and expertise on a myriad of subjects on this list! :)

Thanks, Pat! I just love that pattern. The moment I saw it, I knew I had to make it, and the challenge was just perfect for it. I'm taking a break right now, but soon I'll have to start thinking about the next challenge, which has some "interesting" fabrics required.

Thanks, Bronnie. :) You've put it perfectly -- this one was definitely a delight to make.

Sandy, that's really sweet, thank you. Not entirely deserved I know, but I try when I can! . In message , Sandy writes

Kudos to Sandy and to Pat, too. The fabric choices and placement are absolutely fantastic! PAT in VA/USA

Thanks, Pat. :D I'm glad you like it.
