Exciting News

 and a retreat update

Yesterday was the 100th anniversary of suffrage ratification and Tennessee was the clinching vote.  Bells rang all over the state yesterday.  

You may remember the small suffrage quilt I made to be exhibited with others from all over the country at a small museum in Minnesota.

Well, sadly, the quilt show was cancelled because of CoVID and I wasn't able to make the trip to see the exhibit.  I just got word that the exhibit will be on display at the National Quilt Museum in Paducah from September 1 to October 16!  If you have the chance, go see it.  I know I will!

In addition, I submitted a photo of my quilt to the Pennsylvania Piecemaker's blog and everyone was a winner!  A $50 gift card is on the way to me.

Retreat is going smoothly and a lot is being accomplished.  But because I am in a dark hole, my photos are slow going to the cloud.  I'll show what I can.

I fixed the wavy border on the Asian panel but forgot to trim it before I took the picture.  And I also added the last flange and border to Passionate for Paisley.  Since then I have been working on Hariet's Legacy a/k/a Libby's Legacy because I changed the pattern order 😏

Nancy showed a Judy Neimeyer project from years ago that she had "lost" under her skirted cutting table.  She brought the borders to work on if she finishes the Jan Krentz hunter's star below.

I can't wait to show the rest of the photos tomorrow night when I get home.
