WOW!
I looked up and it is September already:)
Hopefully this means that your summer was
as busy and fun as mine was and you are
just as surprised as I am.
Since I last wrote, this is what I
have been up to...
VEGAS
I will never get to actual Venice so a gondola ride
at the Venetian was lovely especially when
you have the BEST singer in the whole city
and you are with your best friend and love!
Here is my lovely crew waiting
to get in to see Santana!
I knew I knew a few songs BUT,
I knew way more and had an
awesome night dancing with
my sweet sweet Della!!
When in Vegas, you must go see
the exhibit at the Bellagio!
They were still setting up and allowed
people to walk around and look at
everything while in process.
ATLANTA SYMPOSIUM
Here is our awesome group at the
Atlanta Quilt Symposium this year.
Cathy Glover presented a FAB lecture
on polyester quilts.
So Much to learn!
I hope to have an opportunity
to go again. These meet ups always
offer an opportunity to nerd out about
quilting and meet new friends.
JULY TRIP TO MOM/KIDS
In July my husband and I went
to visit mom and get a few things
done around the house. The
weather did NOT cooperate.
After, we headed to NC to visit
the whole fam:) of both girls,
their guys, and my little man!!
One day we met mom halfway
so she could spend some time
with her great grandson!
Another FAB opportunity to meet old
and new friends for a day of quilt study.
Led by our fearless Kathy Cray and Teddy Pruett,
we learned about early 20th century quilts
and our members never disappoint on show/tell!
FIRST VIRTUAL CLASS
I ventured in the world of virtual teaching!
I was a bit worried about the tech but
the students were awesome and I
couldn't have wished for a better first experience.
MAGAZINES
I was in a few magazines this summer:)
Hope you received a couple of them
or go look for them.
All of these publications offer
so much for today's quilter!
Meet, "Bottle Brush Burst" in Quiltmania!
So excited to be in this issue and their staging
is so cool!
A subscription to this magazine would
be so worth it...great articles and exhibit
pictures of quilt shows over seas.
Meet, "Chara Mums" in AQ magazine.
This staging was beyond!!!
I love Autumn and I just want to live
in this space:)
If you aren't a member, you should be:)
Meet "First Christmas" in
the special issue by
Annie's.
With a new little in the
family it is only natural that
thoughts would turn to
sweet Christmas.
This issue has so much more
than quilts though.
THANK YOU to all the publications
who continue to choose my designs
and work with me!
I am forever grateful:)
