I finished my July Purple Diamond Chain Rainbow Scrap Challenge top just under the wire!!! - Go me!
And of course, you will see it again - I mean I still needs to be Quilted ( and bound 😱)
It was also our County Fair week - So I entered a Quilt... It was in the group Category as the blocks were all made by different people, I pieced it, Quilted it . and - oh ya! I bound it.
You can see the full quilt here : Starry Log Cabin I wish there had been enough room to display the whole thing. But!! I did a write up about Quilts of Valor, and they printed that and had it next to the quilt.
We won First in our Class, and Champion in the category - so Yay us!!!
This next quilt is not mine, but I quilted it. It was pretty exciting to see that this one Won Overall Reserve Grand!!!
It's an amazing quilt and I really enjoyed Quilting it - so it made my heart happy that it did so well!!
hope you all had a great week too - and got some stitching in!

Thanks for the fabulous quilt show. I followed your link so I could see the complete Starry Log Cabin too!
Congrats on the wins!! Your buckeye beauties in purple is fantastic!
Great looking purples. Congratulations on the ribbons for QOV and your wonderful custom quilting on the other.
I love purples, and the Diamond Chain has some really pretty ones. I do intend to make a diamond chain this year. Congratulations on the win - such a beauty - and the one you quilted is gorgeous.
How wonderful! I love the fair and all its wonderful displays of creativity. Congrats!
Your purple diamond chain top is gorgeous, Alycia! It makes me want more purple in my life, too. Congratulations to the winner of the reserve grand champion prize - it's beautiful (and you helped)!
I love your scrappy purple, and all your quilting is always so stunning. It was so fun to peek in again. It's been way too long!
That is a great job on the purple quilt! I am not a big fan of purple or pink but I can appreciate their beauty, especially in a quilt! Congrats on the Fair entry wins!
Congratulations on the ribbons at the fair! I'm sure your quilting helped that second quilt become a champion. Lovely purple one too!
Lovely quilting on both there, you prize winner! Great work!
Purpleicious! Your Purple Diamond quilt is gorgeous and Woo Hoo on you both for the ribbons! Well deserved. Enjoy your day.
Wow, what a great week! From a beautiful pieced quilt top (makes me crave a grape soda!) to quilts winning ribbons - way to go!!
Okay, all of those purples together do look dazzling! I too was never much into purple but am slowly but surely building a stash and trying to decide on what design to use to showcase them. Kudos to you on ribboning for both the group quilt (who doesn't love a good patriotic colored log cabin quilt?!?) as well as the one you longarmed! Well deserved accolades for sure!!
Hi Alycia, what a great group quilt. I love the quilting on the other one. Way to go! Congrats and have a great week!
Congratulations on your big wins! Beautiful quilts!
Ta da!! Congrats on the wins, and on all the wonderful quilting! I love the purple top, too.
Congratulations on the fair wins!
Congrats on your wins!
Oh, my, the purple Buckeye Beauty is bee-you-tiful!! So striking! I want me one. Looking at everyone's posts is so hard on the willpower. LOL
Congrats on the ribbons at your county fair, Alycia!!! Nice acknowledgement of your work!!!
The purple diamond quilt is so pretty. Congratulations on winning a ribbon for your group project. Your quilting really makes the piece that won the overall reserve grand.
Woo hoo, CHAMPION quilt. Way to go.
