The winners of the “40 and Fabulous” challenge to celebrate the guild’s 40th anniversary were announced at the recent Zoom guild meeting on October 20th. The results were originally planned to be displayed and voted on in person during the May 2020 guild meeting but the Covid-19 Pandemic delayed and changed the way things were done. Photos of the entries were posted on the guild website, Facebook and Instagram pages and members emailed their top 5 choices to the guild president. The top 5 winners were to receive a cash prize and some fabric fat quarters. When the votes were tabulated, there was a tie for 5th place so a “run-off” poll was voted on during the October Zoom meeting. The top 5 blocks will be made into a banner for the membership table at guild meetings when we can meet in person again, but the table size doesn’t allow for a 6th block to be used for the banner. The fifth and sixth winners will share the cash and fabric prize for 5th place. Remaining blocks will be used by the Community Quilting group to make donation quilts.

The winners are:

#1 – Sylvia R. (Entry #18)

#2 – June B. R. (Entry #3)

#3 – Susan G. (Entry #22)

#4 – Janet P. (Entry #12)

#5 – Katie P. (Entry # 26)

$6 – Joanne H. S. (Entry #25)
