I am absolutely thrilled beyond words!
Whimsy's Doodles won blue ribbon!
FIRST PLACE at A Mountain Quiltfest 2019!
It's amazing how a piece that started out as an exercise to let loose the creative flow grew and evolved into a beauty.
I named my needle Whimsy and together we created Whimsy's Doodles. You can read about the very start in Doodles with needle and thread.
And you can continue reading the progress in Whimsy's Doodles becomes an heirloom.

My friend was with me when I discovered Whimsy's Doodles with the telltale blue ribbon attached to it.
She insisted on taking an in-the-moment photo. There may or may not be tears of joy and relief in my eyes. It is really difficult to submit work that I have poured my heart into for someone to judge.
Later I returned and took a picture of the view that I first saw my quilt. And I relived the moment that blue ribbon stopped me in my tracks 😊.
I couldn't resist taking close up pictures of Whimsy's Doodles while it was still on display.
NOW I consider myself an Award Winning Quilter!
and I could even say that I am a Multi Award Winning Quilter 😉 because "...Beauty of the South" had won 3rd place at Mountain Quiltfest in 2017 and also 3rd Place at the Old Man River quilt show in Hattiesburg, MS in 2017.
so "Wow! just WOW!!"
