What a show we had. There were 17 entrants in the fashion show and each outfit was more beautiful than the next. Here I am in my outfit that I made out of recycled denim. The cap was also appliqued with beads added. The rim was embroidered. The cape has a collar that I did some crazy quilting on and is bound in green velvet.
The show itself was amazing. There were so many quilts it took up the entire gymnasium at the school where the show took place. What was even more amazing is that one of my quilts was given a ribbon for 3rd place. I didn't even know until I walked by my quilt and saw a ribbon pinned to it. There were so many beautiful quilts I don't know how the judges were able to decide. The art quilts were amazing and so were the quilts involved in the paint chip challenge.
But my favorite part of all was the antique quilt and machine showroom. I actually got to use the crank sewing machine and fell in love with it. Now I am on the hunt for one. Wow.......what a weekend. This show has inspired me so much that I can't wait for the local one where I am also a guild member.
