Mid-Atlantic Quilt Show 2009, Hampton,VA
Vicki and Kim attended the show yesterday and were kind enough to email me and send me photos of Bluebird of Happiness. You can see a few more photos on their blogs, Field Trips in Fiber and Cotton Creek Sewing.
I won Best of Show. I actually found out earlier yesterday, but I didn't want to ruin the surprise for them actually getting to see it live. I was surprised and am very happy. All that hard work paid off!Parting Shot: R&D. Yes, I'm planning another art garment and doing some research and development! I need to get the Rabbit family and Barcelona Beauty finished first, so look for another series to start sometime in late March.

you must be "sew" proud! i am new to sewing, and watched the construction of your bluebird of happiness coat with awe and appreciation. congratulations!
Simply amazing work, Summerset. The combination of both design and workmanship is stunning. I had fun looking at all of your past projects, too. Didn't realize you were quite so famous :-)
Take care,
