Organizers of the 2022 River Country Quilt Show have announced the winners of its Viewers’ Choice awards and sweepstakes.

Marcia Cox won the Viewers’ Choice Quilt Award for her red-on-white “Delectable Mountains” quilt.

Arlene Nortrup won the Viewers’ Choice Wall Hanging award for her wall hanging, which used an “Attic Window” pattern to showcase a beach-themed panel.

Sherri Beckwith won the Machine Embroidery Viewers Choice category with her “Boardwalk” quilt, and Donna Fezler won the Miscellaneous Viewers Choice category with her “Pretty Princess” storybook.

The 2022 raffle quilt, a 108-inch square quilt featuring bright solid colors on a black background, was won by Anna Austin. The quilt was made by members of the Quilt Show Committee with proceeds from a raffle to benefit Toss for Autism, which raises money to help students affected by autism in Jacksonville public schools.

Angela Bauer has served as Managing Editor and Lifestyles Editor for the Jacksonville Journal-Courier since July 2012. The Evansville, Indiana native grew up in Paducah, Kentucky and was interned in Paducah Sun, in addition to being a journalist, lifestyles editor, and editor for articles from Kentucky and Florida. She spends her (limited) free time baking, quilting, and reading; and enjoys the AP Stylebook more than (he was told) we should. She’s always on the hunt for a quality cup of hot chocolate.
