| Kookaburra | 
Kookaburra was among 24 outstanding quilts in the category.  I heard it said from show organizers that it ranks as one of the most outstanding of projects to be entered.  Competition was tough, even for the judges.  A note before you scroll down too far...  The photo of the Judge's Choice is horrible.  The fabric selection was very different, but it worked.  I wish to have had a better photo.  I think the Judges made the right call.  The piecing in 1st place was excellent, but I felt it was entered in the wrong category.  2nd place would have been my 1st place call.  I can't share the remaining 19 so next year if you can try to make it to the show.  It is always the third week of January.

They show huge talent, and many hours of work, love the last one, subtle and gentle.
Spotlight on the Stars is very striking. There are some lovely quilts--including yours!
I am curious, though. If the category is traditional pieced, the Judges Choice subtle color changes--is that all the piecing or is some of it from the quilting?
Don't try to figure it out. My choice would have been different.
