MQX East - a WIN and ribbon questions! :)
Is anyone going to or currently at MQX??? I just found out late last night that a client quilt I worked on won first place in group quilts! AHH! I am over the moon just to be included next to the owner on the winner's list on a first place quilt - but I have read that MQX is one of the few shows that does award a ribbon to the quilter as well. Does anyone know if this is true? I worked my butt off on that particular quilt (seven weeks on my frame and more than 100 hours in quilting) and I'm so happy to see it win such a big prize, I would be OVER THE MOON if it came with a second ribbon too - but I know this isn't a super common practice (YET - it should be IMHO)...
OH - and of course I want to beg for a photo!!! I am late to ask but I didn't anticipate in my wildest dreams that our quilt would get blue! So so so happy here - even to be "just the quilter"!Tags: None

I so agree with you Betty Jo! I know that it is not the standard yet but I thought I had read that MQX did this. However I was just sent some pictures of the quilt and I only see one ribbon hanging so I suspect that I may be out of luck this time around. I am tickled that I got to be included on the winner's list as the quilter and that my name is hanging on that card there...what an honor!!!
Now cross your fingers for me...I hope I can do as good with one of my own!!!

I don't know a thing about competitions. But I often follow information regarding who's winning at the big shows and it just seemed to me that piecer and quilter were equal partners in the deal. I think that's the way it should be, but I don't know the rules.
Aside from that, the quilt is beautiful and you should be proud and excited. I think you need to consider raising your rates!

Thank you so much Lois!!! I so appreciate your kind words!
Being a long arm quilter who does a lot of show quilts for clients I really DO hope that a standard develops where the long arm quilter is awarded a ribbon too. I know that the shows that actually do it are few and far between - and I thought MQX did do this, but it may not be something they do for this particular category. I worked hard on this one and I am thrilled to see it win! I know that Barbara also put many many hours into the top as well - I am honored to be a part!
