This last week I was in the Niagara Falls<\/a> area, at my 2nd Quilt Canada<\/a>. I saw old and new friends, many eQuilter customers, including one who came from Ireland! <\/p>\n

Canada's quilting movement is growing fast, and the introduction of the Modern Quilt Guild has added to the rapid spread of quilting there. <\/p>\n

eQuilter sponsored the top prize for their first-ever Modern Quilt category, in the juried quilt show. There was an additional exhibit of Modern Quilts that was sponsored by a local quilt shop. Next door was a contemporary art quilt exhibit which paired up artists for a unique double theme: two banner quilts hung side by side – one realistic and one abstract – both explorations of the same theme. <\/p>\n

I am waiting for the show to end today, and then I will post photos for those of you who couldn't make the show. <\/p>\n

Yesterday while Sam had a music class in Denver, I had lunch nearby. At the end they handed me a dessert list with "Vidal Inniskillin". A week ago I wouldn't have know what that meant, but it just so happens I was sampling that Ice Wine at that exact winery last Monday! <\/p>\n

Seeing Niagara Falls<\/a> in person was just awesome. I'd like to go back and just spend a day alone experiencing the falls up close. The photos of the falls frozen solid, are very intriguing to me. I guess it is like the Cherry Blossom Festival – you have to be lucky and hit the timing just right. Here are some photos from this year's frozen falls.<\/a> <\/p>\n

I am at Denver's Comic Con this weekend, and will be photographing the costume contest tonight. Watch for these, and the Canada quilt photos on my photo page<\/a>! <\/p>\n
