I wonder what it says?

My book, The Quilter’s Practical Guide To Color, has been reviewed in a Japanese magazine. How about that! ColorBookReview-Japanese

As far as I know, the book itself is still in English which says to me that there must be a whole lot more Japanese citizens who can read English than there are Americans who can read Japanese. I cannot read Japanese but I’m hoping that the review is full of kind remarks :-).

The Chattahoochee Evening Stars…

I spent two lovely days with the Chattahoochee Evening Stars quilt guild. They are as lively as their name suggests! At the lecture last night, these ladies from my class showed the progress they had made on the class block from the day before…

Quilt by Teresa Marler, quilted by Donna Titsworth.

Teresa Marler wrote a few months ago asking for permission to enter a quilt she made (quilted by Donna Titsworth) in which she used a few of our design elements. I always say yes but it’s nice to asked.

She just sent a picture of her quilt with the news that she won a biweekly prize at Hancock’s of Paducah. Isn’t it fantastic! I had to look twice to see the Tree O’ Life designs that come our book, Applique Outside The Lines. Very nice indeed!

It’s time to celebrate!
