What the Judge👩🏼‍⚖️ Said, 2024

We just had our county fair, August 5th through 11th! Having grown up in 4-H, I still get the urge to enter my latest projects in the county fair!!!🎡

This year I entered 5 quilts and 3 other fiber entries, 8 items total. It was the same quilt judge as the last two years, and once again, she had a lot of comments. I received: 1 Award of Excellence, 4 Blues/1st Place, 2 Reds/2nd Place, 1 White/3rd Place and 1 Pink/4th Place.

Scrap Quilts & Projects

I discovered a box full of scraps that I had totally forgotten about since we moved into our current home 9 years ago!!! My original thought was to cut all these scraps up into 10" squares, 5" strips, 5" squares, 2 1/2" strips or 2 1/2" squares, in that order, as I usually do with scraps.

Then I ran across this video ⤵️ and changed my mind! I decided to try Tracy's method from The Sewing Channel and make a scrap quilt out of them!!!
