Quilt Challenge 2010

I can't believe another year has passed already. Thank you to every one who entered the Bag Challenge for breast cancer.
The challenge was to make an outrageous bag using half a metre of calico (provided by me), and to add embellishments, embroideries, beads, etc to make it as outrageous as possible.
Although there were fewer entries than last year, the ingenuity was excellent; we had quite a challenge to judge them.
I am delighted to say that Brenda Wylie was the winner with her excellent Chicken Bag. The workmanship was very precise with her attention to detail  exemplary, and her finishing off second to none. Congratulations Brenda! You win a free weekend to my workshops during 2011.
