How creative you are! the first one of your sister and husband praying for your 2 nephews, what a precious keepsake that will be for them to have their parents prayers memorialized forever in picture form! What a wonderful legacy and example to leave for your children. I love their prayer stance with their hands intertwined, their heads bowed together and their two boys above them. Did you hand quilt the boys? Your machine quilting is so relistic and controlled, very artistic rendering. I'm sure they will treasure it, very unique. The other two quilts are very nice too.

They are all beautiful! Your sister's quilt brought tears to my eyes. That is so touching. Thank you for sharing. Wish I could do something like that!

You are truly talented and so deserve your awards. The Poppies are so realistic and incredible. Very well done.

What great quilting you have done. I am absolutely green. I especially like all of them, can't pick just one.

I got it right away that the other two were your competitors quilts. The judges got it wrong your quilt should have gotten 1st place. It is quite unusual and important to highlight such family devotion. Isn't that what we all are striving for in these troubled times. Fantastic job from the land of the cornhuskers.
