I won, I won, I won!!!

Can you tell that I'm exited?

 This is why


 You might recall the quilt I've made for this year's Singapore Quilt Challenge. My Chinese Lantern received the most votes, can you believe it? I am tickled pink!



Look at the prizes; lots of Ruby goodness as well as coordinated solid fabric and Aurifil thread. But that's not all. I also received a couple of vouchers from a local quilt shop. How lucky am I???


And here are some of the other entries! All very nice, don't you agree?


Now I'm going to play with my new fabrics and start planning what to do with them!

Cheers
Vreni
