Welcome to the linky party that let's you rejuvenate your old quilting/sewing posts!
(Check over in my right margin for the list of upcoming August themes)
I always enjoy walking through county fairs and admiring all the projects and am looking forward that you what quilt and/or fair exhibits you have to share today.
I'm excited to share that our Classroom Animal Quilt won a Blue Ribbon in the group quilt category and received a Judges Choice Special Award. The kids were rewarded $14.00 of which will be spent treating them to a yummy ice-cream party to celebrate! Our principal wants to hang the quilt in our school office for awhile. (Won't the kids be so proud!)
Oh Val...I am so very excited for you and your students!! Congrats on your winning the blue ribbon.
ReplyDeleteI'd have given it the Blue, too. Love that quilt! It'll be nice for the kids to visit it and show off their blocks.
ReplyDeleteHugs
I always want to go to the fair and look at the quilts, but it seems like we never make it. Seeing your pics really shows me that I NEED to do that next year! Congrats on the blue ribbon!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the students and you - how exciting and what fun it will be for them to share this venture as the quilt hangs in the school.
ReplyDeleteHow neat that the animal quilt won! Perhaps there'll be a few kids who continue with quilting. Great!!!!
DeleteWhat a great animal quilt and yes, it should hang in a prominent place in the school.
ReplyDeleteI'm so pleased to hear that the kids' quilt won a ribbon! And could there be any better reward than ice cream? I think not! I'll bet that there are some very proud parents out there! Congrats to you and the kids!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Congrats to all on the quilt awards!!
ReplyDeleteI've never entered a quilt into a show, but I do love ogling others quilts at shows! This morning I volunteered for 3 hrs hanging quilts that have been entered into this weekends county fair, they are gorgeous! I have submitted two quilts to hang in our quilt clubs quilt show in early October though, they'll be my first displayed quilts!
