Pieced Amateur - First Place
Prize Awarded - $500
| Entry #303 | "Milo's Feathered Friends" | Carol G. Benson | Barrington Hills, IL |
 |
This quilt was made in honor of my Dad who is 92 years of age. He built me many a wren house. Can you find the wrens in their nests? I really love Amish quilts and have done a lot of research on them. Quilt made with hand-dyed fabric to emulate wool that was used in old Amish quilts. Machine quilted on home sewing machine with trapunto and I used a wool bat. Original quilting designs. Source of Design: Original. Made and Quilted By: Carol G. Benson. |

Red Tide is a red, queen-size version of a similar green, lap-size quilt I designed for my mother 9 years ago. Source of Design: Original, with borrowed element: Scalloped border adapted from Denyse Saint Arroman's Massachusetts Pieced Border, "Pieced Border Collection", House of White Birches, 1996.

Pieced Amateur - Third Place
Prize Awarded - $100
| Entry #316 | "Garden Mosaic " | Ellen Rabeneck | Louisville, KY |
 |
This quilt was started in 2003 at the request of my daughter, Jane Sodano. She selected the fabric in the center. It's a darker quilt than I normally make, but it turned out to be a lovely quilt for a lovely young woman and her husband. All pieces fussy cut.
