Tokyo and France
I hope you caught the Midweek Creative Nudge on Wednesday. If not you can review on our blog! I posted a link to some inspirational photos of art in China, and told about our visit to Sophie's orphanage.
As always, we thank you for supporting our business and our charity program, which is approaching a total of $1.6 million given to these 7 organizations. At a time when so many children are living in perilous times, and so many endangered species and wilderness areas need our support, rest assured that together we ARE making a difference!
My big news this week is that I will be giving my power point lecture 'International Quilt Trends' at the Pour l'Amour du Fil quilt festival in Nantes France on Friday April 26. (Not sure what time yet.) If you are attending this beautiful show, I hope that you can come to see my presentation there, where I will show quilt images and talk about trends from quilt exhibits in Houston, Canada, Mexico, Tokyo and QuiltCon.
Of course I will photograph this quilt exhibit and share this experience with you on
my photo pages and our eQuilter blog and newsletter.
Right now I am resting up for a short busy trip to the Tokyo Quilt Festival, so I can take photos of the best quilts, and share them with all of you! You can see photos from my previous trips to Japan on my photo page.
Registration is open for Cindy Lohbeck's Shibori, Ice-Dyeing and Ombre Dye classes this summer. Lynn Koolish will be here teaching a CQC class next month, and we have Jean Wells coming to do a FRCQ workshop here in April. Our classroom is buzzing - join us for one of our CQC, FRCQ, or eQuilter workshop events in 2019!
sharing your Passion for Fabric...
Luana and Paul
