Well, I have been busy! Busy trying to get my entry for Tactile Architecture done in time to meet the deadline of Feb 20. Sunday I finished the piecing and decided that it was not going to happen and I would just submit it to Town And Country instead. Monday morning I checked to see the particulars on that exhibit and found that it is not offered this year – must have been a one time thing. So I thought what the heck, I may as well try to get it done after all. In the past 48 hours I have quilted 30! Everything hurts and still it is not done so I am throwing in the towel. I could probably still make it if I put in another long day and Expressed the entry, but TA is just an exhibit with nice exposure but no monetary rewards so I will forego it this year. Won’t have anything for In Full Bloom this year either and it is the first year in a long time that I will not have entries in these two exhibits.<\/p>\n
But on the brighter side, “Spring Encounter” was juried in to Celebrate Spring! and will be in Chicago in April.<\/p>\n
This morning AQS informed me that the images I sent them were not big enough, (nothing that explicit about size in the entry instructions) so I am not sure where I stand with them. but I will have a piece in Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival.<\/p>\n
You know, sometimes I wonder if it is worth the hassle!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
