Well three of my quilting friends have hit the jackpot in Amy's Creative Side's Blogger's Quilt Festival and are in the final five in their categories. If you have a moment to vote for them, hop on over to this post. Firstly my real life friend with the impossibly glamorous hair, Laura Needles Pins and Baking Tins with her to-die-for Brit Bee Star Beast quilt in the Group/Bee Quilt category.
And secondly mad as a bag of spanner Hadley Flying Blind on a Rocket Cycle with her fabulous rainbow made in cherry quilt in the ROYGBIV quilt category.

And finally, Marianne The Quilting Edge's extraordinary Oakshott quilt in the pieced quilt category. I confess this might be my all time favourite quilt ever and a little birdie tells me that anyone going to the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham this year might just get a chance to see it in person on the Oakshott stand but that's not finalised yet.
Ooooh, wish Marianne was my sister too.
ReplyDeleteI love all those quilts too.
ReplyDeleteThree gorgeous quilts :-)
ReplyDeletewhat a coincidence - I had already voted for all three :-D
ReplyDeleteWe are going to have such talent in our midst on the weekend.
ReplyDeleteAll my voting has been done and these quilts got my votes! Di x
ReplyDeleteVoted in all the categories as soon as it opened and whadda think? I voted for all the above three (of course;-) Congrats ladies, well deserved!
ReplyDeleteI've voted - the quilts this year have been great (unfortunately mine didn't make the cut ;o( )
ReplyDeleteOh you'll be chuffed if Marianne's quilt is in the show - I wish I could see it in person if it is
Oh, that middle one is so striking!
ReplyDeleteI have voted and all three quilts that you show here were my selections from the finalists. BTW, I can't believe that your YouTube quilt didn't make it as a finalist. It is my favorite out of all the quilts submitted. My white-on-white handquilted Victorian made it in the handquilted category despite my terrible photographs. I am more than excited about it.
ReplyDeleteYay for all three! Off to vote for these fabulous ladies.
ReplyDeleteFabulous quilts and I'm with you 100% about Marianne's quilt! The best quilt EVER!!! Well, actually, all of her quilts are just amazing. Don't you want to go and live in her head for just one day??
ReplyDeleteThese are just beautiful. I have to admit that Marianne's is my favorite. Love the colors and pattern!
ReplyDeleteThat second quilt is just fabulous!

ReplyDeleteOh My Gosh! All 3 quilts are fantastic ~ Laura's especially!
ReplyDeleteWow these ladies sure made my day...but as for living inside my head, Patti, it's just plain scary in there, most days. Thanks again. And Laura and Hadley, good luck with your amazing quilts.
ReplyDeleteYeah for all three. I voted for them but was disappointed your YouTube quilt was not in the running. I thought it was brilliant
ReplyDeleteThey are all beautiful, but I happened upon that 3rd one last week & have rarely been so taken by a quilt! It is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Those are some amazing quilts. I'm gonna hop over and get my vote on. Good luck to them :-)
ReplyDeleteTotally voted for all our pals!
ReplyDeleteYup, voted for our mates too, can't believe your u-bend didn't make it through!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the shout out - and to all the lovely people above; honestly, as if I didn't have enough to be excited about already this week!!!
