Handquilted? Incredible! I am awed by your skill and patience! Congratuations on your win, but seeing these photos, I am not surprised. Wow!

That's what I have seen, too. The show at Houston has a categorie called "Merit Quilting, Hand" - the only category where it's possible to enter a wholecloth.

Congratulations............your work is spectacular. All that effort paid off. Isn't it wonderful when others think so too?

CongratulationsI I saw your quilt there and admired how small and neat your stitches were, well deserved.

I'm a hand quilter, nowhere near to your level I must add, but I love to see others work and did think there seemed more hand quilts on show this time, which was lovely and they all were beautiful.
