Because of their generous support, Road continues to attract the\nindustry\u2019s finest entrants, teachers and vendors which are enjoyed by the\nthousands of our guests that attend our event.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/road2ca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Gammill-Logo-JPEG-High-res-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6371\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the fifth year in a row, our Platinum Sponsor is <a href=\"https:\/\/gammill.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Gammill (opens in a new tab)\">Gammill<\/a>. Since 1980, the Gammill Quilting Machine Company has been an innovative leader in machine quilting. They were the first to develop a large-throat sewing machine on tracks which could be operated from both sides and move in any direction on a specially-designed stand. This revolutionary idea enabled pantograph patterns to be traced directly onto fabric, therefore making it possible to complete a quilt or bedspread in a matter of hours rather than days.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Their Platinum Sponsor contribution of $10,000 is the grand prize for the Best of Show quilt entry<\/strong> in our quilt contest. In addition, Gammill provides their Gammill Quilting Systems Stand Up Longarm Machines for classes taught by experienced Gammill quilters.\u00a0 And throughout the show, Gammill hosts a booth front and center on the main show floor where experienced quilters love to have Road\u2019s guests practice on their products.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Road 2019\u2019s\nBest of Show winner is <em>Garden Variety\nSampler <\/em>by Janet Stone.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/road2ca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Best-of-Show-2019.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6372\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gammill is\nalways \u201cthrilled\u201d to play an integral part of Road to California.
