My First Blue Ribbon!

Woo hoo! I'm a little excited, can you tell?

Nonna's Garden earned first place for Best Piecing. All those tiny English paper piecing stitches paid off!


Meadowsweet Dresden won 2nd place for Best Mixed Technique! There was stiff competition in this category. The first place was also Best of Show. (I hope to show you that one tomorrow.)


I brought my mother to the show today, and I had kept the ribbons a secret. We both teared up a little when she saw them. Awww.


Come on down to the Westerly Armory for an awesome show! We'll be there for two more days, Saturday and Sunday, 10-4. See you there!
