Quilt Expo

I went for it.  I entered this quilt into the Madison Quilt Expo Quilt Contest.  

  

When I look at their gallery of past winners, I realize that it's a major long shot that they'll even let me in the contest.  All of the quilts shown there are super detailed, highly patterned and technically brilliant.

But I figured, as I often do: What the hell. 

The self addressed stamped envelope looks like this, too. That way I won't be so sad when they send me the rejection letter.

I had to send in five bucks, a completed entry form, a SASE and two photographs, one whole quilt and one detail shot.  So, yes, I made quilted envelopes.  Now I wish that I had made them out of denim.  Maybe next time.
