This quilt won BEST OF SHOW for the Des Moines Area Quilters Guild Show !! All the color on red was breathtaking - & the applique superb !
I believe that this quilt was The Civil War Love Letter Quilt inspired by Rosemary Youngs' book. I love the multitude of blocks!
This is actually one of my favorite quilts in the whole show. I thought it showed so much originality & movement.
And this beauty was the winner of
BEST OF SHOW. It is Eureka! by Marilyn Badger. Just feast your eyes . . .

And I love the name of this quilt - Life in the Midwest! Study it closely & see many surprises! It again, was one of my favs!
As I told you yesterday, I had a wonderful visit with one of the winners & here she is with her quilt "Scarlet Fever." Isn't it amazing & so was she - so excited about her win & her quilt. She kept saying "Everything goes good on red!" & I think she's right; she pulled all of these fabrics out of her scraps! She had kept track of the hours spent on the applique & the quilting - wish I had written that info down - sorry! Her name is Jean Clark & she's from Mt. Horeb, WI; she showed me pictures of the next quilt she is already working on!
Quilt on, ladies !
