Quilters, thanks for your participation in our 6^th open quilt show at the WOWSPACE in Wittenberg, WI.   This was a non-juried, non-judged show. 37 quilts were displayed at the show which ran for 3 weekends. The show included the quilted creations of 22 different quilters from 12 different cities as well as an antique baby quilt and a redwork signature quilt on loan from the Wittenberg Historical Society.

Linda Krueger, owner of Pinery Patches in Tigerton, Wisconsin received the Award of Excellence for her quilt titled Christmas Street. This award was determined by a quilter's choice vote of the quilters with work in the show. The decision recognizes the high level of technical skill employed by the quilter. 

3 Peoples' Choice awards were presented based on approximately 160 votes cast by visitors to the show who were asked to vote for the quilt which appealed to them the most.

1st place went to Debra Court of Black Creek, Wisconsin for Memories of Vietnam. This quilt was made from old army uniforms worn by her husband, Robert, during his basic training and service in Vietnam. This quilt will one day be passed down to her two sons.

2nd place was awarded to Mary Beth Koeppel of Wittenberg, Wisconsin for Galaxy of Geese. Her quilt was made of 1930's reproduction fabrics in a variety of pastels and includes 476 Flying Geese units in the overall design.

3rd place was awarded to Gloria Kohn of Birnamwood, Wisconsin for her quilt titled Tumbling Stars which she refers to as a "Someday Quilt" for her oldest granddaughter, who will receive it either as a wedding gift or housewarming gift for her first house.

The 2020 show featured an Honor Quilt display and a selection of gently used quilting books and back issue quilters’ magazines available for a free will offering.   Show admission was FREE. (The guest speaker cancelled due to the weather and we weren't able to reschedule.)

Thank you for joining us in once again making this one of the best attended shows at WOW.
