Tonight I am writing
to you from Athens Ohio, where I attended the star-studded opening of Quilt
National at the Dairy Barn Arts Center! For art quilters, this is considered
the pinnacle of a career to get into this show. A few super-stars have been in
multiple times. I am planning to hand-carry the first batch of Quilt National
2019 catalogs back so watch for those to show up in our Book Department. I will
write more about this in this week’s Midweek Creative Nudge. eQuilter is proud
to be a sponsor of Quilt National.
I am just here for a day and a half, because Sophie leaves Monday with her high
school orchestra, to tour and perform in Europe for two weeks! I have to hurry
home to help her pack for her big trip.
Here are some more beautiful fabrics that I ordered at Quilt Market last
weekend.
