Default I can't believe it!!!

Hi Guys,

I am just so gushy at the moment..... let me explain!

One of my quilt groups takes part in a craft fair held in the small village church once a year in September. We put some of our quilts on the pews and hang some near the alter... anyway, this year I put one of my small lap quilts in the fair... not thinking anybody but me would like it, let alone buy it.

But it was sold!!!! I am a "Sold Quilt Artiste" LOL LOL LOL.

I can't believe that I sold a quilt in such a small craft fair held in a small village in sleepy Suffolk. I am stoked!

I can't show a picture of the quilt as I didn't take one before I sent it, as I just assumed that it would be coming home!!! But I have asked a group member to send me one she took of all the quilts together - so if she sends it any time soon I will post a picture!

I am so thrilled!

Thanks for reading!!!!

Hugs

A very happy Caroline

Congratulations! It is a good feeling to know that someone else admires your work enough to purchase it!

Congratulation! However I'm not too surprised; your work is beautiful and you have a true talent for color and patterns.
