This is a quilt I made my DD from all her 4-H, State Horse show, State Dog Show, and regular horse shows ribbons. I added some of the photos to the bunch. Not from lack of ribbons but to add some interest. Now her DD, my DGD wants to make a quilt with her ribbons too. In the pictures she is about 2 or 3 and now she just turned 12. How time flys!!!! Hope you enjoy this quilt, it was my own design and let me tell you not easy to do with those slippery ribbons but well worth the effort made. Thanks for looking and all your comments.

WOW!! :shock: You did an awesome job!! All of those ribbons show a lot of dedication from the rider and the parents!! A lot of time on the road, practice, and other sacrifices. Great Job!!

Wow. What a Cool idea...

wow, she was a busy girl! and kept you busy too I'm sure. wonderful way to display them.

Wow! Great job!

Holy cow! I bet your both very proud of all that you've acomplished!

OH MY! Oh my gosh! Wow! How amazing. All those ribbons!

What an accomplished for DD for her dedication, hard work and efforts love of each activity . I like that you added the pictures.

Yes I would make one for DGD. I would add pictures for every year and include any ribbons and awards into a quilt.

What a wonderful way to save the awards for anyone!

With the new technology we have now you can actually copy the paper certificates received and put them into quilts. What a great way to put together the history of someone into a quilt.

Thank you so very much for sharing the picture with us here!

Wow! I have never seen anything like that - so many ribbons, and such a marvelous way to display them.

Great job and what a wonderful idea!

Very beautiful & what an accomplishment for your DD. Lovely quilt

Beautiful quilt

Fabulous - is it washable?

Just gorgeous! What an accomplishment for each of you! So many ribbons, she must be very proud!

Holy moly!

That's a ton of ribbons.

The whole 4-H/county fair experience is so foreign to this city girl. What a great memento - much better than sitting in a box somewhere.

Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful idea--turned out beautiful. Congrats to DD for all her great work too.

I am speechless WOW!!! what a wonderful job you did, you DD is going to treasure that for a long time, what a way to display accomplishments and be able to see each one everyday....just awesome....

Nope! I think she takes it down now and then. Puts it in the dryer to fluff and dust it off. Ribbons would never look the same. It just hangs on the wall.

Absouletly gorgeous.

That is such a great idea.... I have a huge box of ribbons from years of 4-H... I wouldn't think to quilt them.... Awesome!!

Great job! Very creative way to use the ribbons.

Just take them out and start laying them out in color and see what you can get. It takes time but it is so very rewarding. My DD hung this quilt at a 4-H open quilt show and there were tons of people who said I should do that with my ribbons. So just take the plunge. :lol:

WOW such and awsome idea i have many 4-H ribbons and they just sit in a book.. thanks for the idea

That is a great way to display all those ribbons. You are a genious! The quilt turned out great.

What a great way to display all her ribbons :) Great Job!!!

As a former 4-H'er, I commend you and your daughter for your accomplisments.

Fantastic work & how lucky for DD & Grdau

Thank you so much for your comments, but many of you make way more amazing quilts. Thank you!!!! ;)

What a great idea to use that box/drawer full of ribbons! The colors are great, too, and I like how you arranged them. Congrats to your daughter for being such an accomplished competitor!

Such creativity. A great way to display all those ribbons. And she will always think of you when she see looks at them ;)

Now that's some quilt! Fun!

At a recent retreat, I watched as a mom made a wall hanging from her sons Scout memorabilia It was remarkable. This takes the cake. As the local 4-H lady, you bet I'll be sharing this wonderful idea, and brag about the well done job.

How truly unique and beautiful. What a wonderful treasure you have created for your DD.

what a great idea

Terrific job!!

What a great idea! I've thrown away more ribbons that I can count...this would have been a much better use....I know she loves it... :thumbup:

That is a WOW!!! So much nicer than having them in a box or drawer. What a beautiful keepsake. Good job.

And you need a Blue Ribbon for the #1 job you did
on this quilt!!!! It is awesome!!!

Don't you love it when your granddaughter says "Me, Too". Bet that quilt has been shown a lot.

I can see how it has won ribbons. beautiful

I agree--it is fabulous. Ribbons tend to get scattered and lost and this way they will be special for a lot of years to come. Great idea.
