Thanks To YOU My Friends

I apologize for not commenting sooner on all your congratulatory comments to me for my recent good fortune having my three art quilts selected for the juried art show! I appreciate every word you have sent my way. I have been busy floating on a cloud and also busy sewing a new quilt (Judy at the art gallery said I need to start calling my stuff "Textile Art"), okay working on a new textile art quilt, sorry Judy...quilted textile art?...for my aunt who is turning 89 in May. She and my uncle owned and operated a camera store for all their working years till retirement and photography was big in our family. Especially family photos. So this textile piece is full of family photos! I will blog it when finished. All that to say why I've been busy and to again THANK YOU ALL for your wonderful praise. I SWEAR I could not and would not have done it without YOU!

  1. And she is going to be so thrilled with it, I know that for a fact as I am so thrilled with mine.
    It hangs in a special place in my lounge, it is oohed and aahed over by everyone who visits, and it is my pride and joy as well as a family heirloom now and forever more. This is such a 'mitzvah' that you do for others!
    Lotsa hugs and wfs to you.

  2. Your quilts are gorgeous. My mother made quilts all her life and I did one, which made me completely appreciate the enormous effort that goes into each one: they're truly works of art. Heirlooms, really...
