I have been to the Hobart Island Quilts 2009 show yesterday and was very excited and happy to have so many wins! I don't have pictures yet as we were not permitted to take photos ... but will have some soon.
Two of my own quilts won a Highly Commended award each and my customers received a First, a First, a Second and a Highly commended also - wow!
Here they are:
First: Group Quilt - "Walkies" - by the "Quilt Inn Group" and custom quilted by Jane Monk
First: Non-Traditional Two Person - "Kimono Glory" by Marie Goodall and custom quilted by Jane Monk
Second: Non-Traditional Two Person - "Asian Glory" by Marie Goodall and custom quilted by Jane Monk
Highly Commended: Applique Quilts Two Person - "Funny Farm" by Moira Keating and custom quilted by Jane Monk
Highly Commended: Little Quilts - "A Scrappy End" made and custom quilted by Jane Monk
Highly Commended: Group Quilt - "Dear Jane Friendship Quilt" - pieced and custom quilted by Jane Monk - individual blocks made by members of the International On Line Group "Dear Jane" for The Great Swap in 2007.
What a wonderful thing to win in a quilt show full of beautiful quilts.
Cheers for now and happy quilting ... Jane
