I've just learned that two of my photographic images and two haiku have been accepted for the "Eye of the Quilter" exhibition at the upcoming International Quilt Market and Festival shows in Houston, Texas.

excited you should be!! Congrats

Congratulations!

How exciting ! Will you there to see it in person on display ?

Wow! That's great! Is your avatar one of your pictures?

Congratulations. And so you should be excited.

That's fantastic! Congratulations. Will we be seeing them here?

Good for you! That is great. Congratulations.

Congratulations!! I am doing a Happy Dance for you! Will you post them here after the show is over? :D:D:D

Thanks, everyone! I'm told that the exhibit will be in another room and posted alphabetically. My images are photographs-- one taken in Juno, Alaska, and one taken on top of Masada, in Israel. They have my little blurb attached telling how these images inspired me in my quilting. I'm not going to see the exhibit personally, but I hope some of you will... I'm sure there will be some wonderful images and haiku from all over the country (and maybe the world?)!

Congratulations! I hope you receive a ribbon.

Wow, congrats. Great job.

What a fantastic day you are having....another one is coming when you win your awards!

Congratulations, there is nothing like seeing your work displayed at a big show. I had journal quilts at Houston twice. I hope you get to go see them there.

Happy hugs and smiles for you. How wonderful to have your talents recognized in such a special way!!!

Congratulations!

Wow! Way to go - congratulations!

Thank you, one and all... but I don't think there are any awards given for this particular exhibit. We didn't submit quilts... just photos that might inspire quilts... and haiku that would make us think up images that might apply to quilts.

The honor and 'award' is being juried into this exhibit! That in itself is so-o exciting!
