I'm back to share quilts from the Brownstown Guild Challenge: Home Sweet Home. The challenge was to create the home of a famous person or a famous home.
Here were some of my favorites~
Here are some others. They were all so creative and wonderful! A great challenge theme.
And here are the 5 quilts that entered into 4 categories. I competed against myself in the pieced/machine quilted category. The judges were very very generous!Alice Payne
Snowflower and Secret Fan
Just Keep Swimming
All Cooped Up
Sumptuous Stars
At the end of October my Alice Payne quilt competed as a CT Fair finalist at a banquet. I won First Place Applique/Hand Quilted. It was a thrill and honor.yikes, that is enough bragging already!
I wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving. I have much to be Thankful which includes my friends who read FWB. Thank you for your friendship, support and encouragement.

What a great challenge! Congrats on the ribbons!! They are well deserved.
Thanks for continuing to blog, Barb. Happy Thanksgiving.
Why do you say that the judges were very generous ?? Nooo ! It's well deserved ! Full point. :)
I hope you will have an Happy Thanksgiving with all your family !
House quilts are terrific to begin with, but these quilters went beyond with their creativity in the challenge. Your fabric choices are just wonderful- such fun to see your entries and ribbons. Those OBW quilts are endlessly fascinating to me- but I'm not quite ready to try one. Yours is lovely.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, Barb! Thanks for sharing today, and for every post!
I love the Sumptuous Stars. I think it would make a perfect Christmas quilt of which I have none. I have been looking and looking for something and have collected fabrics. Is it pattern that I can buy? I can't figure it out by looking at it. Is it a Lemoyne Star?
All the other quilts are gorgeous also.
I'm thankful for your blog - you never fail to post something interesting to inspire with lots of fun added in. I enjoyed all the house quilts and congratulations on all your well deserved ribbons. You make such beautiful quilts!
Congratulations on all those well deserved ribbons!
Love the quilts made for the challenge. Awesome!! I believe I would have made a gingerbread house. Yumm! Congratulations on all your ribbons. You deserved each and every one of them. Happy thanksgiving. ;^)
Wow your quilts are lovely, and I’m sure they are even prettier in person! Congratulations, and Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!

Congratulations on your win. Your quilts are amazing, and I always enjoy your posts here and on FB. Happy Thanksgiving.
I never tire of seeing your Alice Payne quilt.
The fish print border quilt is a good one. Nice design and I like the fabrics (especialy the fish). The pink ribbon looks so pretty displayed with it.
Congratulations--your quilts are lovely! It looks like a fun show--always great to see how different the challenge interpretations can be!
Congratulations! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

Congratulations! The variety of quilts you shares in the show shows your diversity. Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving
Congratulations, Barb! Your quilts are lively and varied, all deserving of ribbons. The "home sweet home" theme is great. I especially like "Up" with all the balloons.
Brag all you want ; you deserve the honors :)
Those houses were all fun to see but that one with the balloons...made me smile :)
Many congrats to you for your most recent accolades! Thanks so much for taking the time to photograph and share these inspiring works! I particularly love "All Cooped Up!"
Those quilts were good... I am glad I saved them until I had time to slowly look at all.
