Hi Everyone! I want to apologize for not announcing the judges last Monday… I was out having a baby! So today I am revealing the amazing Judges. Next week, when the AUDITIONS open, I will also reveal all the SPONSORS and PRIZE PACKAGES. It’s all so exciting!

Quick recap so far… click for more info on:

Say hello to our Judges! Their job is to select the Top 16 from the auditions, and then help narrow down the competition as it advances. Their individual votes will always be confidential, it is their collective vote that will be used in the judging process. 

I am so honored to have each one of these quilting sensations on our Judges Panel… (also know as the “Tribal Council” in Survivor terms). You have probably heard of each of these ladies… I have been so inspired by each of them. I definitely recommend checking them out on the web! Here’s a little more about them.

Mary Dugan from Molly Flanders Makerie
Mary is such a delight in the online quilting community. One of her specialties is her knack for matching quirky fabrics and her amazing hand quilting. She has taught quilting classes for many years at several quilting shops in Columbus, Ohio. She has contributed patchwork projects for a Mollie Makes book (which will be released in the UK in the Fall and in the States in the Spring ’15). She has sewn for Quilt Market booths. Her latest endeavor includes an e-commerce site which will launch this fall!

Amy Newbold from Sukie Don’t Ya Know
Amy, more commonly known as Sukie in the online sewing community, has been quilting since 2010. Her inspiration for getting into quilting came from her mother in-law who has been sewing for over 40 years. Currently, Amy lives in Salt Lake City, Utah with her husband and two kids. She works as a Director of Operations for a local I.T. company. In 2012-2013 she volunteered her time to the Modern Quilt Guild Board of Directors as the Treasurer.
