“Maximum Cat Nap” wins at IQF-Houston!


I am honored to announce that “Maximum Cat Nap” won third place in the Art Quilt-Miniature category at the 2011 International Quilt Festival – Houston. Woo-hoo! For a complete list of all the winners, please go to the International Quilt Association website. 

I attended both International Quilt Market and International Quilt Festival this year, and have started posting photos and commentary from these events on my blog. I collected so much stuff (freebies and purchases) that I had to mail about 50 pounds of stuff back home while I was there. And my suitcase was still overweight on the way back home!!! I’ll be sharing some of this loot with my blog readers in the next few weeks. 

I’ll also be posting soon about my experiences with teaching (this was the first time to teach at IQF), and with participating in an exhibition (I had work in The Space Between exhibition).

  2. I loved this quilt. It reminded me so much of my dearly departed cat, Stormy, when I saw it in Houston. It was masterfully done and so deserving of your ribbons. Kudos!
