Circleville, Ohio (June 23, 2009) - Jo Ann Azbell of Williamsport took Best In Show and Sectional titles with her quilting skills at the Pickaway County Fair. The craftsmanship of Azbell's green and white jacket with purple trim impressed judges.
"The judges where supremely impressed with (Azbell's) skill and artistic flare," said Steve Speakman, chairman of Ankrom Building competitions at the fair. "The bottom line is that this is a beautiful jacket."
Azbell said she took a different approach to this project by quilting materials before sewing the jacket, a method she said seemed to speed up the process.
The Ankrom Building is located at the northwest entrance of the fair, along State Route 22. It is open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily during the fair, which runs through Saturday.
