Saturday, September 26th, Winners announced and take down.

I had another full day at the quilt show with jobs that took me from show opening until take down. It has been so fun to get to know some other members a little better.
A totally unposed picture...not. These ladies had the huge task of staffing the show.

Money takers at the front door.
Celia and I were "white glove ladies" this afternoon, which means that if someone wants to look at the back of a quilt we could lift it with our gloves so the quilts weren't touched. Deb caught a few people touching though. While I was white gloving, I also had the very difficult task of voting for my favorite quilts. There were 8 categories and I am proud to say that I picked 4 of the winners!
This was the Viewer's Choice and Best of Show. Deb Cimaglio
This was the best hand quilting, Lydia Scott.
I think this was best applique, Kathy Stuart.
Best professional quilting Dawn Larsen pieced by Andrea Krier.
Best small quilt, Kathy Stuart, this is made from Dupione Silk and was trapuntoed.
I can't remember the category, but it is a wool bed quilt, Lydia Scott.
Best domestic machine quilting, Robin Billiter.
Take down was a breeze and took only about 1 1/2 hours with the army of people that were there.
What a great show, a little sad that it's over, but now I've got two years to prepare for the next one!!
