Hoffman Challenge 2006




In 2006 I entered the Hoffman Challenge in the Beginner Quilter category, which I was.  I was so thrilled to enter my quilt.  The colorful pattern was of butterfly wings.  If you are familiar with Hoffman materials you know they have gold threading.  Since I was new to quilting, this was a challenge for me.  The measurements had to be perfect, they have strict rules to follow. 


This was a style of quilting that I had never done before, each square was individually quilted and pieced together in rows and connected.  I was proud of myself.  However, I didn't win anything, but received a pin for entering the contest.  I was happy to have done it.  Someday I plan on entering again.
