Alright, time to put everyone out of their misery....
From 242 entries in the Blogger's Choice Bundle Competition down to eight, and from eight down to three final winners, it's been a marathon effort by everyone involved due to the stiff competition and incredible entries. But Cara of CaraQuilts, Amy of Amy's Creative Side and Kimberly of the Fat Quarter Shop have made the very difficult decision of which of the bundles were their top two (just in case of double ups). Lucky I asked for a couple of choices ranked, as there was (completely unknowingly) a strong concensus for the top two bundles. Third place was tied, so as competition sponsor, I gave Kimberly the casting vote...
So I am happy to announce that our three winners are...
First - with two judges selecting this as their favourite bundle, congratulations to Deb of Triostitchstudio.
Second in was an early and very popular entry by Laine, of Laineybugdesigns.
And the final winner of the half yard bundle from Fat Quarter Shop is Ruth.
Ruth's taken a break from her blog but she may have to start up again after this!
Congratulations to ALL our shortlisted fabric fiends and everyone who entered. What amazing eyes for colour and design there are out there. My poor judges had a terrible time choosing. Hats off to Sunni, Megan, Heather and Megan for doing the shortlisting and Cara, Amy and, most importantly, Kimberly for making the final selection.
Community Choice
As I warned, this was just for fun - no prizes for this. 284 people voted for their favourite bundle from the whole list. Despite some hiccups with the survey not showing people they had voted, there was a clear winner. And that was...
... Number 252, Anne at AsDesigned.
Congratulations too to everyone involved! A special HUGE thanks to Kimberly and the team at the Fat Quarter Shop for making this happen!
Now, time to go shopping!
CONGRATS to the winners. I might just have to buy one or two of those bundles myself. :)
