WINNER! O'Tinsel Tree Roll Up

I'm am thrilled to announce the winner of the O'Tinsel Tree Roll Up contest!  All the entries were awesome....everyone added a bit of their own style to the projects which was great....


The categories for judging were originality, workmanship and presentation.


THE WINNER IS:
The Quick & Easy Quilted Dish Mat
from Squirrel Bait Crafts!
 Not only is this mat colorful and bright, but is cleanly pieced!
Squirrel Bait Crafts took the dish mat a few steps further by using a microfiber mat instead of a towel giving it that nice plushy, foam-stuffed look.  She also used bias tape to bind the mat which gives the mat a nice accent.  And finally, the addition of the heart detailing just added that little something extra to snag the win.  The stitching sank so nicely into the mat, don't you think?

Headed out this week to Squirrel Bait Crafts is this lovely Jelly Roll from Robert Kaufman Fabrics.  Enjoy!!!
I want to personally thank everyone who participated in the contest.  All the entries were fabulous and each entrant added their own signature to the project.   It wasn't easy to decide.  My husband and I discussed each project in detail and even my kids weighed in with their opinions! 

Here are all the fabulous entries (in no particular order):
iPhone Case (Carla)
Modified the size, added Velcro and Carabiner Hook
Simple Tote (Alma)
Added a zip pocket inside and a magnetic snap closure
Checkbook Cover (Little Red House Designs)
Used home decor fabric for the exterior
Checkbook Cover (jjebs)
Added the adorable ruffle to the front
iPhone Case (The Splendent Beauty)
Added the button and elastic for a cute and functional closure
All of the projects are inspiring and all submitted by very talented people.  Thanks again!
