it's gorgeous!! I recognized the style and I went and looked it up and sure enough, it was the same quilter.
In 2011 I went to paducah and was stunned by a silver quilt that was very similar to this white one. It had also received a 1st in it's category.
quilt is "Every Cloud has a silver lining" you can see a picture of it on this page.
