So happy you won a blue ribbon. As I have said to you, "All your quilts and blocks are blue ribbon winners" at least in my opinion. I admire all of your beautiful work in each of your quilts that I have seen. Happy that the judges could agree to recognize the great work that you consistently do on your quilting work.

A most beautiful block.
I didn't know right away what S&W was either, and I have given two classes on Stack 'n' Whack.
I would like to know how big that block is. If it was a contest, did everyone have to make the same size? And what will happen to all these blocks? Are they all going into the same quilt? We did that once for a raffle quilt.
