Billie Holiday Earned a First

I'm thrilled.  This was my first time entering my work in a quilt show and one of my pieces got a ribbon.  The background quilting was the fastest to complete in the entire project and I think it's my favourite part.  I included a few music symbols among the leaves and flowers and swirls.

I was so hesitant to quilt her face.  It took the looming date for the entry to get me started.  Maybe that's what I need to get projects completed.
