Contest over and Chicago photos

Our first contest is finished and we have drawn the winners-yes multiple winners. We decided we really needed to share the Over The Rainbow fabric and so have drawn 3 winners. We are going to contact the lucky winners today and will post a bit about them tomorrow. Thanks to everyone for playing with us!

I have posted a couple of photos from the Chicago Festival. We had a great chat with Alex Anderson and are looking forward to more time with her at the Portland OR Spring Market. She just keeps looking better and better! What a sweetheart she is. If you haven't checked out her internet based quilt show, please take a minute to do so.

Also posted is the grand prize winner-a quilt done based on a photo of a Rooster against a barn. Wonderful quilting-just so impressive! Also a smaller quilt that we all loved because of the great colors. More later about the quilts.

Back from Chicago Festival

Well-we sure had fun. The bus ride was great considering it poured all the way to Chicago. We love our bus driver! We made it close to 10 am when things opened and immediately split up and cased the joint. I will post more pictures when my little sister, Jo, downloads them to me.

We had a chance to chat with Alex Anderson and show her our Pincushion Treats. We got a great reaction to it from her, especially when we told her we had sent one to her home! She looks so cute and is so genuinely nice. What a great time we had!

More with the pics-and don't forget that our Contest ends on the 15th. We will be picking 3 winners of the beautiful Quilting Treasures Wizard of Oz fabrics. Be sure to enter!
