Wait I Can Explain!

My Summer Fun list is borderline insanity...

(no idea where this photo came from but it might be fun option...

instead of  making the entire quilt)

but I can explain!

I have some really fun news and it has me thinking in a whole different direction!

A few weeks ago a friend of mine and a member of my local quilt guild

stopped by and wanted to inform me that I had been nominated for 

Featured Quilter at the guilds' next quilt show.

I told her that was so nice! What a sweet honor. 

And thank you for the nomination... sorry I didn't get it.

But... she said "you DID get it"!!!

I was so excited to hear that.

Amazed in fact.

Me?

Wow!

Incredible!

Then I started thinking..

Crap!

What do I have to put in the show?

Will it be good enough?

Something old?

Something new?

That's when the lists started.

I went through a mental inventory of my quilts...

what one's could possibly be show worthy.

And then there are all the one's I have been wanting to make.

So far this year I have not been very productive.

So that brings me to Summer Fun.

An opportunity to shift into high gear and start 

putting a show together! 

I did have an exhibit of my quilts once...

in the Wawona Library at Yosemite National Park.

It was really fun. I even gave a lecture.

And I lived through it!.

So, I know I don't have to stress... but I still want it to be nice.

Thus... a long list of quilts to make!

And quilts that need to be quilted!!!

Fortunately, the show is next May.
