Quilts heading to Paducah.

JCMM13 
I have never entered any of my own quilts into an AQS Quiltweek competition before now.  I decided that since I will be in Paducah already that I might as well try it out, what would it hurt?  I wanted to go with my Just Call Me Modern quilt.  It's one of my favorite quilts that I have designed.  So I was really happy when I received an email saying that my quilt was accepted to be judged for the competition.

The quilting was really fun on this quilt, it took a long time - but in the end it was worth it.

I also received an email from Thelma telling me that Coastal Lily made it in too. 

Here's hoping that one or both get a ribbon!  If they don't, then I will just consider it an honor to have them hanging in Paducah.

    Wow! Wow! Wow! You are such a fantastic quilter and I love the way, you made it. Which kind of batting did you use, so the quilting stands out so nicely? It really inspires me for my next top. I hope I can start quilting at the weekend and I catched first ideas by your book.
    Greetings, Rike

    Judi, Congratulations on having not one, but two, quilts accepted to Paducah. What an honor! At Paducah last year, I saw one of the quilts you quilted. I was so proud to tell my friends that you were the quilter. It was like I REALLY knew you. Fingers and toes crossed for ribbons coming home with your quilts. Getting into the show is a win as far as I'm concerned!!!
