This "Best Over-all tote" winner is by the same lady who did the tiny 9 patch quilt that I showed yesterday. It looks like she might have used some of the same fabrics in this project.
More pictures tomorrow.

do you ever entry into the fairs? I did two years in our local but I did not care for the way they are displayed and also no signs out for people not to touch and no security - someone lost a quilt there one year from it most likely walking away from the fair on the arm of someone - if you get my meaning! After that I decided it was not worth it - the area is also a dusty barn next to the animals and no air conditioning so there is a big fan at the back of the barn that is turned on and all the dust and dirt swirls around.

Oh I have always wanted to make that quilt, (the prize winner) it is called Oh My Gosh I think and it is gorgeous. Thanks for the wonderful photos.
Thank you for a lovely post! Such a shame space did not allow proper display...such wonderful creations to be layered and squashed! Thank you for sharing your photos!
I have to tell you a funny story about that 9 patch quilt. I have a woman in my guild that is a real overachiever. She made 3 of those quilts, all queen sized...one for each one of her children. When she mailed one of them off to her son, he called her and said, "Mom, I thought you knew that we have a california king bed". Believe it or not, she didn't blink an eye and promptly made them one in the correct size!
What a great selection of quilts -- too bad they're not able to show a bit more of each quilt though!
That chair, while interesting, looks rather uncomfortable! :-)
Hi Wanda, Thanks so much for the pics. I was there but I like to reflect on them all! Thanks, thanks! jmh
I believe the 9 patch is called a Postage Stamp quilt. I have the instructions for one, and just can't bring myself to make anything so time consuming. Maybe this winter. Wouldn't that be gorgeous in batiks ?

I love that 9 patch quilt. I'd love to make one sometime.
