Congratulations Watson!! This is huge (and well deserved) and I hope you will be able to attend the show to see it hanging in person, hopefully with a ribbon! But even if it doesn't ribbon it is still a major accomplishment to get juried in as a semi-finalist and there is nothing quite like seeing your quilt hanging in a major show venue and it is always great fun to chat with other spectators about your art. Please make sure you post a pic of it hanging in the show, that is if you are able to attend in person.

Edited to add, where is the show taking place?

joe'smom 03-01-2017 06:24 AM

I can see why it was accepted. Wow! Congratulations and good luck! (When will this take place?)

Watson 03-01-2017 06:31 AM

It is June 14-17 in Toronto and yes, I am going with a bus trip with my quilt guild, so I will be able to see it hanging.

Congrats Watson!! Looking forward to seeing it in person when I chauffeur a car load of Guild members to the show. I'll make sure I let them all know that I 'know' you ;-)) It is gorgeous in the photos you have shared but I'll bet it will be spectacular to view in person.

Watson, I am so happy for you! I remember seeing your quilt when you posted it before. I looked at it for a long time because it is so interesting designed and made. It is simply stunning. I am sad for me because we had been scheduled to be in Canada at that time. However, our DIL changed plans and we are now going in August. Bummer! Going to that quilt show is on my "To Do" list. But, not this year. I wish you good luck and hope you win a ribbon. Please show us some of the quilts from that show.

Mary Christine 03-02-2017 03:59 AM

Congrats on your well-deserved honor!

joan3111 03-02-2017 04:06 AM

As Lisa's Mom I know (well maybe I don't) the hours spent making this quilt - even finding the material for this quilt was an adventure. The honor of being accepted to the Show is well deserved!!

twinkie 03-02-2017 04:12 AM

Very well done.
