I’m off to Houston!

October 28, 2014

Quick post here: I’m packed and ready to go! I’ll arrive this afternoon and hopefully will make the Winner’s Circle tonite. On Wed I have myself scheduled to attend 3 lectures, a lunch and a dinner.

Published and Prepping

October 23, 2014

It’s been a wild ride this week- finding out I will be published again and prepping for Houston! Last week I said I was giving all my brags at once-who knew?

Houston International Quilt Festival-The Quilts-Part 2

November 12, 2013

There was a bumper crop of spectacular minis in this year’s show. Keep in mind that miniature, as defined by the Festival, is any quilt that is less than 24″ on each side. I don’t think any quilt I have pictured here exceeded 14″ on any side. This little gem has been inked, painted and […]
