Australian Quilt Show Winners
Best of Show
Best of Show prize of $10,000 goes to Bronwyn Hill for her amazing quilt – ‘Horatio’!
“Horatio the Hippocampus came from the formidable structure and shape of the HMS Victory. Cutting a strong presence through the ocean. Simple beginnings from a detailed drawing on brown paper. Hand selected fabrics and detailed quilting create a form of strength and power, pushing forward from the ferocious crashing waves.“
Runner Up to Best in Show
at The Australian Quilt Show Awards goes to Linda Steele and her fabulous improv quilt ‘Freedom’
The statement says “The thrill of entering an amusement park is always exciting for me. The soaring roller coasters, the Ferris wheels and so many exhilarating attractions pulse to the sound of music, screams and cheers.“
