Houston Quilt Show coming up

I was informed today that my quilt called "Glass Beach" is being used for the advertising media page. Here is the link, www.quilts.com/mediapage/ I am very excited that it was choosen to represent the Edges Exhibit in Houston. I have been so busy with patterns and fabric designs for Houston. My fabric is now going to be late in arriving, the mills are all backed up so it could come as late as the end of Sept. With Houston Oct 9th that doesn't leave much time!

I took a pastel class from Alicia Sotherland today. Pastel on suede
mat board. No preliminary drawing just start by filling in negative
spaces. I choose to paint this old women from our photos from
Italy. Actually Helen took the picture and met and talked with this woman. She has very masculine feature so hard to tell if she is man or
woman. Marta also went and painted a beautiful piece.

Long Beach Show

Where does the time go? The Long Beach Quilt show was amazing. I worked the SAQA booth on Thursday night and got to meet some wonderful people. The quilts were amazing. I walked around in awe of the talent and work required to produce these masterpieces! Jamie Fingal sent us an email about a video that was wonderfully done to show off some of the exhibits. We were honored to be choosen. Here is the link, choose vidcast and Edges to see some of the quilts in the exhibit, including mine! "Long Beach Quilt Show"
