“I was so excited to learn that I had won the peacock quilt,” Hurtado said. “Pictures just don’t do it justice. I know there were hours and hours of hard work and I can tell it was a labor of love. These quilters are very talented ladies. I am so proud to now own one of their quilts!”

The Pavo Quilters, who sewed the quilt and raffled it off, is sponsored by the Pavo Civic Club, which also sponsors the festival. Pat Chaney Hall, speaking on behalf of both groups, said this was their best year ever.
