Quilt Judging Fun

Back in September, I spent two FUN days judging the quilts for the Georgia National Fair. Since the fair is now open and the winners announced, I can officially post about the trip!!

First of all, look at this AMAZING sunset…..

This photo was taken from the hotel room on the night before judging started!!

We arrived at the fair grounds on Sunday morning, meeting up with the 7 other judges and all of the amazing staff and helpers!!

I was paired with another judge (Nancy), and we were assigned to a table and team…..

….and we got down to business!!

Nancy and I worked extremely well together, making for a fun and fast two days!!

Here are a few things that caught my eye as we worked thru our stack of quilts….. and I apologize for not being able to give credit, but we couldn’t know who made what!!

This was such a fun bright and fun broken heart….

Look at the wonderful edging on this Double Wedding Ring quilt…..

This was one of my favorites….

It was a sweet design and look at the door mat……

SO well done!!

And, THIS is what a GOOD postage stamp quilt looks like…..

I wish that I had done my “Taxing Scrap” more like this!!

This was the most amazing paper pieced quilt…..

I’ll stop there for today. Come back tomorrow for a few more goodies and the “Best of Show” reveal!!
