I'm still sorting and trying to name pictures, have a ton of them. But this one was my favorite - if you COULD pick a favorite. The quilting on this was like nothing I've ever seen.
It was entered in the "Bed Quilts - home sewing machine" category and took the blue ribbon for that category.

You are soooo right. This is by far the most elegant "quilt" I have ever seen. Can't even imagine the time this took to complete. I would never be able to put that down where anyone could touch it. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

The BIS quilt had a "body guard". I've got several close up's of that one to share as well. Tomorrow :)
