Elaine just found out that she won First Place in the Keepsake Kids Quilting Challenge!! She won a $200 gift certificate!
This is the third year she and Lynette have entered (and actually, the third year that Keepsake Quilting has offered it). Each competitor is given the same six fabrics to use. You are allowed to add up to two fabrics of your own, but must use at least four of the fabrics they give you. Elaine was done with her quilt when she realized she had only used three fabrics, so she quickly added the little white mouse in the bottom right corner. She is more than thrilled to have won!
I thought Lynette's quilt was just as good, but sadly, she didn't win anything. Maybe next year!
I'll put her picture in another post.

Elaine and Lynette-Great Job!! Your Quilts are great.
Elaine, one time when your mom made a jumper for 4-H, she cut it too short so we had to quick buy some trim and we inserted it and added a piece to the bottom. She got first prize on that!
Sometimes necessity makes us think! You did a great job I can't wait to see it for real! Grandma S.
