SAQA Conference 2018-San Antonio

April 12, 2018

I spent 4 fabulous days in San Antonio Texas at the annual Studio Art Quilt Associates Conference. I always find it difficult to describe why I make it a point to go as often as I can. One of the best things is the people: You find yourself hanging out with the most amazing people! […]
