My Squared Illusions 6 quilt, which is currently on my homepage, won Best Use of Color at the Mid-Atlantic Quilting Festival XIX in Hampton, Virigina.  I always think of that show as the &#8220;Williamsburg&#8221; show, but it appears that&#8217;s no longer so.  Carol Taylor won Best Wall Quilt for her Moonglow quilt.  I saw this quilt in Houston this past fall, wearing a blue ribbon no less, and it is absolutely gorgeous!  If you&#8217;re not familiar with Carol&#8217;s work, check out her site <a href=\"http:\/\/www.caroltaylorquilts.com\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.  And while you&#8217;re there, be sure to check out her studio.  It&#8217;s a jaw-dropper!My latest quilt, &#8220;Blushing Triangles 3&#8221; won 2nd place at The Quilt Fest of New Jersey IV.  This is the first time I entered the quilt in a show, and I was very pleasantly surprised not only with the win, but with the comments.  Nothing like the word &#8220;fabulous&#8221; appearing!  But did you go visit Carol&#8217;s studio yet.  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gloriahansen.com\/weblog\/wp-admin\/www.caroltaylorquilts.com\" target=\"_blank\">Click here if you didn&#8217;t<\/a>.
