Houston Quilt Show

I just returned from the International Quilt Show in Houston.  What an incredible experience!  I got to check out all the latest gadgets and goodies! 

I loved this swirled lone star.  

Overall, I felt so blessed to be around the incredible beauty and creativity required to make all the inspired creations that surrounded me.  

What a trip!

Friend with a ribbon

The American Quilter Nashville Quilt Show has posted its award winners. One of my friends, Rilla, won a red ribbon! Two other friends had their quilt accepted into the competition. I'm so honored to know these incredibly talented women!

Here's a photo of Rilla's needlework winner.

Also, one of the local guilds here in Louisville had their guild challenge win a red ribbon! What an honor!

International Machine Quilters Assoc. Awards

There is some phenomenal eye candy over at the International Machine Quilter's Association website. I am a proud member of this group and the artistry of the quilts entered this year is humbling.
