P.S. I just had to add this picture, stolen from Gerrie, of me, Gerrie, Karen and our sponsor, Del. I thought it really showed how happy we all were that day. Giddy, almost.

I'm Back
Yes, I have been missing in action for more than a week now. We just got back this evening from a trip to California. Our final destination was the International Quilt Festival in Long Beach, where the Twelve by Twelve quilts were being shown. But we had some great adventures on our way there, including California Missions and the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Hearst Castle, just to name a few. I will be back with photos and stories in the days to come, but tonight I just wanted to check in and explain my absence before I fall, gratefully, into my own cozy bed.
As in Houston, the Twelve by Twelve exhibit was a big hit and again took my breath away to see what we have done. It is stunning to see all 288 pieces all together. How was I lucky enough to be a part of this?

I'm still a little giddy, but very tired from four days at QFestival, as I'm sure you are after your marathon drive up I-5. The entire 12 X 12 experience has been life changing for many people. Thx
ReplyDeleteYou do look happy, very happy. Del has done a wonderful thing to show your quilts to the public.
ReplyDeleteIt was especially a thrill to share them "in the fabric" with Del. I love that photo of the four of us!!
ReplyDeleteIt was a wonderful to see the display. It was fabulous. You were not at the booth at the time we were there on Friday. Sorry I did not get to meet you. Keep up your wonderful art work!!
