I finished my brother’s quilt binding and decided to title it, “Dreaming of Big Machines.”  The woman who I have quilt some of the tops I do had insights about my brother based on the two themes of the quilt and I think they were very accurate.  He’s a hard worker who has high dreams.  “Dreaming of Big Machines” seems a very appropriate title.

Once it was completed, one of my quilting friends suggested I enter it in the county fair.  I did and it won a blue ribbon!  It’s the first time I’ve ever entered a quilt or ever even considered entering a quilt anywhere so it’s sort of fun I did so well so early in my quilting life. The funny thing was that I didn’t realize it was an actual competition when I entered it. I just liked the idea of sharing it with people. I am anxious to hear what the judges comments were and will post them once I hear about it. Yeay!
