Today the awards for the International Quilt Festival (Houston) were announced live by Ricky Tims and Alex Anderson. We have shared the recording on our Facebook page if you’d like to see who won!

Congratulations to Janet Stone, who won the eQuilter Master Award. I can’t wait to see this beautiful quilt in person in a few weeks. A special congratulations to Chinese quilt artist Chen Jing whose beautifully stitched 18″ x 17″ quilt won Best of Show. There are so many gorgeous intricate pieces that were featured in the awards announcement today. I hope many of you will be able to come and experience the beauty and artistry in our talented community, at Quilt Festival.

Please make a note of the dates and times that I will be participating in Artist Talks on Friday and Saturday – 11 am at Sacred Threads, and 3 pm at the SAQA Camouflage artist walk. (Noted below) I hope you will mark that in your calendar and come to hear me and the other artists speak about their work.

We have had a change in our hurricane comfort quilt drive. Mission of Love has had to withdraw due to other commitments so we are setting up an alternate plan with another trusted partner in North Carolina. You can still drop off quilts to eQuilter, and stay tuned for the address to ship quilts directly. (Do not ship to eQuilter)

sharing your love for fabric,
Luana and Paul
