I'll open up the photo session with the Queen of the Show. This beautiful quilt won Best of Show, 1st large quilt, 1st handquilted, Best Use of Color, and was Viewer's Choice.
The hand quilting on this was just phenominal! Such tiny even stitches. I thought I took one of the name card - maybe it was one of the blurries.
* EDIT - THE QUILT WAS MADE BY JANET ATKINS - "MURDERERSKILL CROSSING" IS THE NAME OF THE QUILT *
The 1st place applique - large quilt and one of the vendor awards. There were a lot of applique quilts in this show in all of the catagories and they seemed to be a favorite of the vendors, too.
2nd place large applique quilt, 2nd place use of color and vendor's award.
1st place modern quilt, 3rd place Best Use of Color, and vendor's award.
We are having this ruler class at one of our fall guild meetings.
Sorry it is blurry - this was such a fabulous technique used to make this. 1st place modern small quilt.
Sewingly Yours

Wonderful show! Such beauties!
Thanks for sharing, it's so fun to see these quilts. That best of show is amazing, any idea of how long it took to make?
Thanks for sharing the photos. It's the next best thing to being there. The 2 applique quilts are stunning.
Soooo much inspiration. THANKS for sharing! (I love their little info. clips on the quilts...cute!)
I could look at quilts all day. And all night, too, for that matter. I'm constantly amazed by all the variety in form and color. Thanks so much for sharing these with us!
That first quilt is by Janet Atkins. I had the good fortune to see it last year - what a masterpiece! Thanks for sharing your photos of this show.
Wonderful quilts! Thank you for sharing them.
I saw on one of the quilt tags that the quilter was from Ballston Spa - I had been there 2 years ago on the way back from a conference in Saratoga Springs. Had no idea it was just an hour from Schoharie! Conference is in SS again this year - in just 10 days - we'll wave as we go by. LOL. I'm always amazed at the gorgeous quilts with applique - sew beyond my abilities .
So many amazing and beautiful quilts...thanks for sharing!
What amazing quilts, but I also love the little clothespin label holders - so cute.
Wow! Wow! Wow!!! They are all so incredible!
I enjoy looking at applique, but don't typically do much of it. That "My Enchanted Garden" may cause me to rethink that! Thank so much for sharing these.
Those quilts with a lot of "WOW". Looks like it was a wonderful show.
Wow awesome quilts. Thanks for sharing your photos. Very impressive. Can't believe all that hand quilting on the first one. wow
