Heart O' Texas Quilt Show 2013

 The show is over....WHEW ! What a lot of work ! I had "sew" much fun though. It was a wonderful chance to get to know my fellow guild members and a chance for them to get to know the mischievous side of me ! Fun or annoying ? That may still be on the table for some ! Hey, if your going to do something as hard as putting on a quilt show, you might as well make it fun....RIGHT ?
Let's start with the best of show...

 Beautiful quilt ! 
This lady gets 2 of those wonderful ribbons made by some very talented guild members !
The ribbons should have won a ribbon !

This is the donation quilt, "Stars Across the States" made by the  members.

First in this category also won the HPU Presidents award. 
HPU is Brownwood, TX  own Howard Payne University.

 Second in the same category.

 And third (me) with "Growing Up on the Ranch" in the same category.


This beautiful thing won first in applique.....

And my Butter and Marmalade got a second in the same category. Whoo Hoo !

Remember when I told you about this quilt getting peed on here by the Ranch Patrol ?
Well guess what ? A little p never hurts anything I guess !
It got first in the hand applique, hand quilted category ! 

This is our quilt show chair, Angela McCorkle of Quilts with a Heart who meets herself coming and going ! And with her our fabulous quilt show commentator ! He has a wonderful clear, deep voice and he's a pastor of a local church.  pssst.....I think he has a secret side job as a comedian.....hehe
Now, a few random pics....

 This is the guild president..Nancy, precious should be put in front of president for this lady!

This was the "Best of Show" last year..the quilt, not us...hehe
  
My bible study buddy won a second with this beauty ! Congrats Colleen !
More pics in the coming days.
Have a blessed day.
