QUILT

The winner of the 2011 Opportunity Quilt is QGGKC member
Carol Marcks! Congratulations! |
The 2010 Opportunity Quilt

was won by Kathi
LaFrance from Colorado. Here is what Kathi had to say:
" I am so honored to be
the person that won a one of a kind quilt design for your guilds 35Th
anniversary.
Your guilds beautiful quilt arrived a few
minutes ago!
OH MY! What a beautiful quilt! You can feel/see
the love that went into making this beautiful quilt! The applique
is stunning and the stars.. Oh My gosh! They are perfect! The long arm
quilting shows off the quilt! All the time and effort that went into
making this quilt shows! One very beautiful quilt!
My husband's first comment when he saw the quilt
was..."That is my quilt...so, you won it.. I claim it!"
I know that quilts are made to be used and
loved, but this quilt will hang in my sewing/quilting room! It will be an
inspiration for me...something to push me to make a quilt this exquisite. I
have only been quilting for 3 years...so, i have a ways to go to get to this
level...your quilt will encourage me!
I was sorry to hear that you will not have a
quilt show this year! I had planned to drive my daughter to Lawrence to see
her grandma...and make a side trip to see your show! I will add my name to
your newsletter mailing list and I will watch and see if you find another
venue for your shows!
Thank you again,"
