Good News and A Tutorial


You know when you have those days where everything is aligned and works out perfect?  I am having one of those months=)
Earlier I posted that my quilt 'A Ripple In Time' got accepted into Paducah.   Tonight I got this email:

Congratulations! Your quilt A Ripple In Time has been selected for inclusion in the special exhibit O, Canada 2013. We received many exceptional entries for the exhibit, which will premiere at International Quilt Festival in Chicago.  Ultimately 22 quilts were chosen.

So I am representing Canada with my quilt among 22 other quilts.  They also can travel to the other IQA shows/markets and it will be returned at the end of November.   Now, I have not got confirmation that one of the shows is Houston... but if it is, trust me when I say that I will have attained a very, very, very big dream.    As every year for the past several years I have gotten a rejection from the coveted Houston show.

And remember this little cutie?


It is a tutorial for Pellon Inc.   It is now posted on their website.
Don't forget to enter the giveaway found here.
