Since I had to fly out of Houston Sunday morning, I missed the entire last day of the show. It was not until I was back home that I was told that \u201cPrairie Fire\u201d had sold during the show. I had several inquiries about purchasing it, but so far I do not know who bought it. I hope they enjoy living with it as much as I have.<\/p>\n

Before I left on Saturday, I checked the status of my \u201cPrairie Fire Mini\u201d in the Silent Auction and it was at $260.00. I\u2019m anxious to see what it eventually brought and who got it.<\/p>\n

There were lots of opportunities to purchase quilts at Festival, and I was lucky enough to come away with two 12 x 12\u201d pieces from the SAQA Auction.<\/p>\n

\u201cSquirrel Food\u201d by Nancy G. Cook and \u201cWoman Of The Year\u201d by Bodil Gardner. I feel very fortunate to have them as they are both beautiful and made by artists that I admire. It was great to see the actual quiltlets on display- they are even better in person than on-line, and I am thrilled to have them.<\/p>\n

The purchaser of my little Yorkie postcard for the Pet Project came by where I was sitting with “Prairie Fire” to tell me how much she loved it and I was so glad someone got it that really appreciated the work in it.\u00a0 I think I heard that this will be an ongoing feature at festival so I hope to get an earlier start on some cards for next year. I know that this year’s event surpassed the goal for the no-kill shelter in Houston.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
