Great job!!!! Did you use kits, or your own stash? I have a couple kits in mine, only because they required panels, but most of my RBR is from my stash.

That's really the key, isn't it? Finding patterns you like, but keeping it local enough so you don't have to travel far to get the bonus prize!! I finished piecing mine yesterday, getting ready to send it to my quilter today. Five of the store's rows in my quilt have not yet been claimed, so I'm trying to get it finished by early next week.

Great job! Enjoy your prizes!

Not so quick... LOL. It took me a month! I spent a lot of time procuring the patterns I wanted in my quilt. That took longer than anything. I really just got lucky to find one of the quilt shops who's row I used, that didn't have a winner come in yet. I don't see how anyone can do one of these fast, like the lady who won in the first 24 hours!

REALLY liked quilting-as-you-go. It was so nice to quilt one row at a time, it's own way. This was my first experience with QAYG but won't be my last.

Teri, about half of mine were kits because they required special fabrics that were in the kit. It really is fun to have a kit and not have to hunt for the perfect fabric. It sure makes it expensive, tho. :D

One of my favorite parts of the process was quilting each row by itself, and bringing it to "life". Can't wait to make more. I'm going to make some of last year's rows that friends are sending to me.

Good luck winning in one of those 5 shops! Your chances are excellent.
