Congratulations to midge4quilts who took home the First Place award in the large quilt category as well as the Past President's Choice Award at the Hemet Valley Quilters Quilt Show in Hemet, CA, this past February.
Midge's quilt was the TQS 2009 BOM, "Stars for a New Day." The project took her one year to complete and here is what she has to say about participating in the BOM.
"I am a better quilter today after competing this project which was all paper-pieced. The instructions were excellent, and I was able to apply my own use of colors which was a challenge in itself. I encourage anyone who wants to sharpen their skills and end up with a beautiful quilt as a bonus to get involved with the TQS BOM and other projects."
Midge wanted to share her quilt with all of you and it's designer, Susan Garman. To learn more about Midge, click here.
