Dana Lynch, Carol Moellers, Cindy Bell Neville, Mary Holman, Mary Kay Runyan, Wanda Myers, Bridget Lilja, Hanne Grete Brink and I are very happy and excited to have it in the show.
    Wow, Karen! How did you manage the logistics? I would love to hear the details!

      As unbelievable as it still seems to me we were lucky enough to have our story on these Daily Blogs awhile back. Thanks for asking!

          It really has been so much fun working together from all our different locations. We have group meetings to plan and make decisions online. Only seeing part until we can get together at the show for a first look at the complete quilt for most everyone except the one who quilts or binds it.

                Sorry, I don't have a picture of this quilt. I looked it up in the show book, though, and it is beautiful!

                  I'm just now catching up after the madness that is Paducah! It was so nice to meet you, Connie, and you have done a fabulous job reporting on Quilt Week! I'm so flattered that you are "obsessed" with my quilt, Charm School! So funny! And I wish I would have gone with you to make those darling sheep! Oh my!! LOVE!!

                  Thanks to everyone else for your very kind words about my quilt! I was SOOO not expecting to even win at Paducah, much less, win a purchase prize! I'm going to miss my quilt, but I know it will be well taken care of at the National Quilt Museum, and I hope to visit it again next year, if not sooner. I adore that museum!

                  Congratulations to everyone who entered a quilt! It was truly a stunning show! SO, until next year....Quilt Happy!!
                  Back to Quilting!

                      Oh, what a great blogspot! I felt like I was revisiting Festival. Good for her, to print across the pictures! Too many times a picture of a wonderful quilt floats around the Internet without giving credit to the quilter! I totally agree with her reasoning behind putting her blogspot stamp on it!

                            I have a question (actually a series of questions) for any competitive quilter who might drop in. I've been to Paducah 3 times now, and know that the great quilts I see there have often been previously entered in other shows (Houston, MQX, Road to California, etc). How does a quilter decide which shows to enter, and in what order? Does the fact that Paducah has purchase awards for the top winners affect that decision? Inquiring minds want to know!

                              That is why you see quilts in other shows before they are in the Paducah show!

                                Don't you have to agree for them to go to the museum as well, so they wouldn't be able to be entered elsewhere?
