It’s finally time to unveil the winners of our Aunt Grace
Challenge 2005! It was a challenge for our judges as well, choosing
form among the many entries. We’re now pleased to announce the
Best of Show, winner of the Viking Quilt Designer II, as well four
top category prizes cash prizes of $500 each, and an honorable
mention prize of $250!
Given the international theme of this particular
fabric collection, we were especially pleased to receive a number of
entries from outside of the US, and even more excited to realize
that two of the winners are from Japan (Best Hand Quilted category)
and the United Kingdom (Best Pieced category)!
On behalf of Judie Rothermel and all of us at
Marcus Fabrics, thank you to ALL of the talented entrants who took
part in the Aunt Grace Challenge 2005!
See
these winning Aunt Grace Challenge 2005 quilts, and nine
