Yup....things got a little messy.
Every area of the house seemed to be turned upside down!!!
Then amongst the chaos, I had to put together quilts and samples for an upcoming workshop in the Vancouver area. So last Friday morning, the last detail, of the renovation was finished and that same afternoon we flew to Victoria.
Loading up the quilts
I actually look like I might be organized!!!
Just before flying out, I got the fabulous news, that three of my quilts were accepted into Quilt Canada 2016.....so exciting.
Here is the aftermath of three trunk shows in two days.
Then a sick day.......
Such a lovely view out of our hotel window.
Some free time on Granville Island.
Then a two day workshop over the weekend, here in the Vancouver area and another one, in Victoria next week.
I hope to find some normal after the dust settles........but then normal is probably highly overrated.
Congratulations and I hope you can get some rest - although I "know" you from your blog and I'm sure you will be arranging like the energizer bunny til........
ReplyDeleteDiscovered your quilts on Pinterest, love your design esthetic! And appreciate the "from the heart" post on your rejection letter, thanks for keeping it real.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much.

ReplyDeleteAlways a treat to hear from you and see what's new. So pleased that your wonderful quilts get a chance to
ReplyDelete"hang" on display. Congratulations.
Congratulations on your acceptance! Fingers crossed for the win. Drywall dust is the worst:(
ReplyDeleteI recently discovered your work via Pinterest. I am a big fan of your designs, the quality of your art and your sense of color. I have just completed a "MariQuilts" inspired tote bag using several of the techniques you have shared. Thank you for the tutorials and sharing your "style" and expertise.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much....I'm glad the tutorials were helpful. I would love to see a picture of your bag.
DeleteHow do I get photos to you?
ReplyDeleteI tried to paste it, and the system wouldn't take it.
ReplyDeleteYou are a no-reply commenter so I can't reply directly to you but you could email me at thequiltingedge@gmail.com or if you have Instagram you can find me there under the name MariQuilts.
