One of my quilting buddies dared to submit her quilt to the AQS Paducah show and IT WAS ACCEPTED! I think that’s pretty special (even if she isn’t really famous yet). Here’s the quilt:
Jerri’s quilt, which she calls “Tell Me A Story”
And here is a picture of Jerri Szlizewski, who made the quilt:

.The pattern is “Once Upon a Time” by Cheryl Almgren Taylor, who graciously gave Jerri permission to enter the quilt in AQS shows. Here’s a close-up of the work on the quilt:

Jerri is very patient when it comes to her quilting and does beautiful applique as well as lovely pieced quilts that some of us would consider tedious 😉 I’m so happy for her to have a quilt in this prestigious show! The quilt will be shown at AQS in Lancaster, PA as well, so if you live near either Lancaster or Paducah you’ll have a chance to see it in person.

It is charming!
Glad you like it–I’ll tell her
Thanks for featuring my quilt, which is being gifted to my granddaughter on her 4th birthday this year. It was a joy to make and took a full year. You’ll be one of the first to know how it does in competition.
Congratulations Jerri! The quilt is gorgeous and surely a HUGE amount of work. Best of luck at the AQS in Lancaster! 🙂
Thank you for your kind and encouraging words, Andrea
I will be at AQS in Lancaster and am looking forward to seeing Jerri’s quilt! Mary, thank you ifor telling us about it.
I’m so glad you get to attend the Lancaster show. I enjoyed it when we lived in PA. Look for my quilt too, please 😉
