And I am pleased to report that the red and white Hawaiian quilt Kaui o na Molokama was awarded a Judge's Merit and the Award for Hand Applique.
And the New Allendale Quilt was awarded a Judges Merit and the Award for Hand Quilting. I am so glad that two very traditional quilts won prizes - sometimes I think they get forgotten among the more modern and more exciting quilts....
But as I did not attend the show in person, I can't say any more! Unfortunately, Malvern is a 200-mile, four hour drive away from Suffolk. The judges marking sheets (always interesting to view) were not enclosed (as with the FOQ entries) - and no catalog either. I would like to have seen the other quilts - perhaps one day....
Maybe someone with a blog has photos? Congrats on the ribbions. I wonder how many of the quilts in the show were hand quilted?
ReplyDeleteYour hand work is lovely.
wonderful news!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Pippa! Two very well deserved awards and as you said it's really good that the work in traditional quilts is recognised in the prizegiving at shows.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations (again) for your wonderful success at Malvern, Pippa! You really deserve the ribbons.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!

Give me traditional in any shape or form anytime. Well deserved win Pippa. Pretty sure you wouldn't get judges marking sheets. I have exhibited and won a couple of things in the past and haven't received the judging sheets unlike like the FOQ who do give them to you. I didn't make Malvern this year so I hope you have entered them in the FOQ so I can see them there.
