Congrats, your quilt is beautiful.

I just returned from the Festival of Quilts. I so wish I paid more attention to whose quilts were there. I did a fast walk through the quilts as I was working a stand for the Cotton Patch. Maybe I even met you there? It was a wonderful show and I hope to go back again some day!

Unfortunately I couldn't go to Birmingham...but I would love to one day.

Such beautiful, beautiful work!!! Congratulations on both :thumbup: :thumbup:
