Rita, you did look quite fetching in your gown! Diane, thanks for supervising Rita and for posting the evidence! Sounds like another great quilt show to add to my bucket list!

Diane, thanks so much for taking me to the Rocky Mountain Quilt Festival. And for putting me in my purdiest dress too. We gals had a swell time.

Yup, my mistake... Looked at the fb pic on sherry's post when still at work... Oops. That should teach me to snatch a peek at fb when working

Thanks, but I was behind the camera. The people in front of the camera were Kelly Gallagher Abbott and Sherry Reynolds. You probably recognize Sherry from all of the press about her quilt, America Let It Shine. Kelly used to be the curator of the Hoffman Challenge. She is super busy these days selling long arm quilt machines.

Sunday afternoon is the perfect time to visit and view the exhibits.

I saw you on fb, looking great, complete with flat Rita

Awww! That's so much fun! Thank you.

Hi Betty Jo!

I saw your quilt in the Hoffman Challenge exhibit - Beautiful!

Flat Rita and a couple of friends posed for a photo with your quilt. (You'll have to check out the blog section.)

Regards,

Diane Frank

because I don't see an emoticon for ROLF!

I'll be good Diane, I promise. ( )

The Sashiko instructor is Becky Scellato (I have never met her.)

Yes, Rita you will go! I'll pack you in my purse!

Watch out Nancy - just remember that you said that you WANTED to see granddaughter pictures. (If you had Facebook, I could have overwhelmed you with the photos by now!)

Alex Anderson was supposed to be the featured instructor this year. However, the festival had to be rescheduled, and the new dates did not work with her calendar. Sigh.

Yipee! Can I go Diane! Can I go Diane! Can I go Diane! Pleeeease. I promise to behave.

I won't be bringing Flat Rita this time, but Diane will probably have fun with hers! I think Sew Batik comes every year -- at least I hope so. But if they're not there, I'll definitely see them in Houston! The sashiko class sounds fun. I look forward to hearing about that and seeing granddaughter pictures!

Have fun DIane and Nancy. Is your Sashiko class with Pepper Cory Diane? She's so much fun and a great teacher. I had that class with her and just took another one of her classes on marking your quilt for quilting. I have a quilt in the Hoffman Challenge exhibit.
