Keep in mind, I flip around the quilts snapping here and there any which take my fancy or are of interest to my Online Students, usually grabbing a few mins before opening on a Sunday. Not much time for perfect photography etc. and sometimes I miss something. Forgive me.
So, let me show you REBECCA STEWART-BARTLETT'S quilt "MORRIS HILL MANOR" which was RUNNER-UP for BEST OF SHOW plus THE BEST LONGARM MACHINE QUILTING plus FIRST PRIZE in the ALL TRADITIONAL QUILTS - PROFESSIONAL section. Whew!

ReplyDeleteThey are indeed quilts of wonder, all beautiful creations. You are most welcome. I think many more enjoy what they never get a chance to see. Particularly, the closeups. What do others think and want to see?
