Hawaiian Cheater Quilt Contest Tie: Congrats to both winners!

August 25, 2011

For the second time in the history of our Fabric Of the Week contest we have a tie for first place between two terrific fabrics: "Hawaiian Quilt Circle of Akahai Quilt" by JennArtDesigns (left) and "Hawaiian Quilt Circle of Flora" by first-time competitor Jessica Greenwalt (right). Both designers have been awarded $100 in Spoondollar credit and, despite the fact that our contest page shows ten designs rather than eleven, we've made the next nine fabrics in the voting results available for sale. (The contest page is also limited in that it can only show one design as winner, which is a shame.)
