Hi Geneva -

That's so exciting! Thanks for letting me know! Somehow, I almost missed this post. It didn't show up as a new post for me under the "Recent Topics". Not sure what happened, but I'm sure glad I saw it!

I just finished another blog post about this year's Houston show. This is the second half of the show quilts that I'm going to share. If interested, check it out here. The next series will be the quits in the different exhibits. I'll let you all know when that's ready.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving (or a wonderful Thursday for my friends from other places around the world)!!

She had a picture of all the winning quilts. All of a sudden up popped your quilt "Tea for Two" and I said "I know her!" It was fun to see your quilt again. Just thought you'd like to know people are still enjoying your lovely, award winning work! geneva

I wouldn't be surprised if she came back to our guild to teach another class in a couple years as she was so well received! I hope you will get to take a class from her one day soon.

Thank you BJ, Nancy and Terry for your blog posts. I read them and enjoy them very much.

Terry, I liked your post about assisting your friend to "cut loose". I would love to take a class from Jean Wells. I admire her work very much.

BJ, I'm with you on the show quilt circuit. I think you are correct in making quality quilts and not expecting them to be accepted in shows, but hoping someone will buy them! (And I heartily agree with you about where fb is going. Yuck!)

Nancy, your brain must be spinning with all that you learned and experienced at Houston. Thanks for sharing with such great pictures.

rehak OFFLINE Posts: 2783 Thank you received: 458	And I just finished my first blog post about the quilts from Houston. This one shows some quilts from about half of the contest categories. It's mostly pictures, so stop by and take a look if you get a chance. Here is a link to the page.

Sewdreamy OFFLINE Posts: 2009 Thank you received: 160	Where is everybody? Anyway, I wrote another blog in my series for sit down quilters....part 5...rulers and gloves Facebook has gotten so vile lately that I have decided greatly reduce my time there and hang out here on TQS a little more. Hope you are all having a wonderful time in your studios.

Hi everyone! Nancy, what great reviews of the classes you took in Houston. It looks like you had a lot of fun and learned a lot. Terry, you handled the oops really well.
I have been lurking here from time to time and reading your blogs. I have been intensely working on my son Ken's designed quilt, and other things, including a blog series on quilting for machine artists, but my latest blog is about a coming exhibit of my quilts that will be at G Street next spring. So I've been kind of bad about posting my blog links here, so here they are:
Part 1 on rulers
Part 2 more on rulers and markers
Part 3 on threads
Part 4 on pattern making
and then this

Hope you all are doing well and having fun in your studios. I will try to post my blog links here when they are finished....lol
Hugs.

My words worked--no scissors were involved!
