Honorable Mention

The West Houston Quilter's Guild hosts a Quilt Show every 2 years. This green quilt was my very first entry, ever, any show. I was awarded "Honorable Mention" for this quilt I call "Green at 40"!



It was quilted by Barb Knoblock who belongs to my Bee and here's the story: Back in 2007 when I turned 40, I ask my quilting bee friends, and my friend Kim, to each make me a green block. It had to be 12" and they had to use their favorite shade of green. I was amazed by their talent! It took me a while to finally put the blocks together but it got done in time. It is a very special quilt to me, and the fact that it was recognized by the judges makes me even more appreciative of the work my friends did for me.
