told her I had no idea I had won as I hadn't received an email. I actually found out I had won it from NONNA57 (Pauline from Sydney) here on CUTE. She apologised to me and said it was human error.
Anyway after sorting it all out I've bought a stack of designs and they are sending it to me on a CD. Looking forward to getting it.
Love and blessings Chris

Thanks Terre - I've got some more Christmassy things and a few other little bits and pieces so you'll have to wait and see!
I've checked again yesterday and no, still nothing. I sent something to Bettina (Ansalu) and I haven't heard from her - the mail must be slow between countries.
Love Chris

What a nice way to start out 2011! I know it makes you feel great for your beautiful work to be recognized and praised by someone that is not your "Cute" admirers! The gift sounds wonderful also! You certainly deserve the "special" gift for all of your numerous talents! Your work is always a piece of art! Hugs and blessings, Linda

You're not wrong there. They take months to do especially this one as the little squares were all cross-stitched and then I made them into a pocket with a red binding on the top (which was fiddly to say the least!) Love Chris

Thanks so much - I like mostly floral, baby, abstract styles - I also love geometric shaped quilts, but well balanced. I've recently done a lot of machine embroidery onto my quilts which adds another interest. Love Chris
congratulations Chris, you do such lovely work that I'm not the least bit surprised by your win. Good thing Pauline keeps a watchful eye on things or you might have lost out on all your goodies. By the way your quilt is wonderful. Hugs, Karen
1 comment
Thanks Karen - when I rang ECHIDNA they apologised for not sending me an email informing me of the win. The receptionist said it was just human error. I don't mind I got to speak to them and have ordered my goodies, they should arrive next week. Love Chris
Well deserved, I went and look at it in projects, (thanks raels011 for the link!) and it is beautiful. So much work, so many hours went into it. Congrats on the win and enjoy your designs!
