I'm interrupting my regular Sunday post about Hearts & Wreaths to show you pictures from the Sauder Quilt Show.
Here is a link to pictures of the class winners and Best of Show quilts.
Here is a link of all the classes and placings in the classes. There are no pictures on this list.
How did I do at the show? I placed 2 out of 3 quilts. The Pastor's Attic Quilt received a 1st placing and a blue ribbon!
Here is a picture of the back side. I enjoy viewing subtle quilt designs on the back of quilts.
They used to have a separate category for whole cloth quilts but this year Welsh Beauty was the only whole cloth quilt in the show, she received a 3rd placing.
And the backside.
Star Dance didn't place. She was entered in the largest class, Large Quilt/mixed media/long/mid arm quilted. Lynn and I are driving to Sauder's tomorrow to pick up our quilts. She'll go on our bed for the summer.
Here are pictures of other quilts from the show. I decided I was in the mood for brightly colored appliqued quilts and foundation paper pieced quilts.
I am going to post half of the pictures today and the rest next Sunday.
I will show you the rest of the pictures next week, there are too many for one post.
The 2025 Sauder Quilt show will be held Wednesday April 30 - Saturday May 3.

Congratulations, Gretchen! Your quilts are gorgeous! What a thrill to win two ribbons.
wow....so many beauties...
Such amazing quilts to be seen here. Congratulations, Gretchen, on winning the ribbons for your beautiful quilts. Such lovely applique on Pastor's Attic quilt and of course the quilting is amazing.
Congratulations on the ribbons! All three of your quilts are gorgeous. You had some stiff competition, all of these quilts are pretty awe inspiring.
Congratulations on your ribbons Gretchen! Your quilts are just beautiful, and honestly I love Star Dance and it is prettier than any of the other quilts you have pictured below it. I don't mean any disrespect, but some of those quilts are rather gaudy to me - don't tell them I said so!
Gosh Gretchen, your quilts are amazing! The Pastor's quilt takes my breath away and so much work on the Welsh quilt! Love the stars as well! Congratulations!
the quilts are beautiful. I always love to see the quilts at the guild shows as they are more the type I would make - whereas the AQS shows have so many more art quilts. Your quilts are wonderful to see
Those quilts are gorgeous! Thank you for sharing. Congratulations on your personal wins also.
Congratulations. Thanks so much for sharing pictures of these beautiful quilts.
Congrats on your well-deserved ribbons! I love Star Dance and it would have been fun to have seen in person. A perfect summertime quilt. Unfortunately, I was unable to attend this year. Thank you for posting the other award winners and looking forward to seeing the second half.
Stunning quilts and congrats on the ribbons in appreciation and recognition for all your hard work and effort!
Congratulations on your placings Gretchen, how wonderful for you. Thanks for sharing photos of others which caught your eye.
What a great bunch of quilts! Glacier star is one of my favorites!
wow, congratulations! So much love stitched into those quilts.
Lovely quilts! Congratulations!
Wonderful mini quilt show! So good to see your quilts hanging in the show: very different from being on a bed. Glad you got 2 ribbons. Your handwork is exceptional in my book and you deserved them. Good competition though! Hooray for YOU!
Congratulations on the ribbons for your gorgeous quilts. The other quilts that you have shown are all beautiful. Thanks for sharing them. ~Jeanne

So many lovely quilts. Congrats on your ribbons. They were well earned!
Congrats on the first place ribbon, that quilt is gorgeous! The star quilt has a place on your bed making it a winner for you too. The quilts in this show are national level -- oh the workmanship! People must have stood in front of them and examined them for hours --- I know I would.
Thank you Gretchen for sharing the photos of so many beautiful quilts. Congratulations on getting two ribbons. Your three quilts are all beautiful submissions. Thank you for linking with To Do Tuesday.
