"Primitive Web" by Linda Roy from Tennessee won first place in the Innovative Appliqué category.

This quilt is all hand appliquéd and hand pieced by Cheri and free motion machine quilted by Linda.
This is the back of the quilt above "Greg's Song". The back is embellished with over 15,000 Swarovski hot-fix crystals, making it a "stunning reversible quilt!"

No, this is not an award winner, but it's the first done in my long line of quilts to quilt. One down, six to go! My Mom made this one as a gift for someone and I told her I would quilt it for her. So it is done! And in time for Christmas!
Have a great day :)
