My "Dancing Lights in Indigo Night" Quilt has won 1st prize in its category at a show in regional NSW. I was absolutely stunned to get the news this morning when the quilt was returned by mail (I couldnt get to the show) with the award and nice cheque for A$100. This is my first ever 1st prize in quilting. I was jumping around and hugging my husband (and played some good tennis later, must have been all that jumping ha ha!)!

Some of you may have seen this quilt in my webshots album at:

Congratulations! Are you going to frame your cheque or spend it on some well-deserved treat for yourself? The quilt is beautiful. Yes, I have seen it before, but it's always worth a second look!

Thanks Louise! I think I will use the money at my LQS and buy some fabric for a new project. But I have 3 UFO's I must complete this winter before I start something. Now, to choose a new project....hmmm.so many options, so little time.....

I liked it when I saw it the first time! It surely deserves a blue ribbon. Now, you should publish the design and instructions!
