Dominoe’s Passing

Published on 03/04/10

We had to put our sweet bunny Dominoe down today. Dominoe, a 2 year old French Lop bunny, was Garrett’s bunny. Garrett came to the vet with me so he could say good-bye. Dominoe will be greatly missed – he was buried this afternoon under the shade of the Cassia tree.

2010 Quilt Show Ribbons

Published on 03/04/10

Here are a few of the ribbons that I won. I was able to design them again for this show. Fortunately, I was not the one to make all of them. My friend, Sheree, and her Mom made over half of them on their own.

(The white and blue ribbon in the background is from a different show.)

Show Results and awards

Published on 02/25/10

I am so EXCITED! Each of my quilts ended up with a ribbon.

My Lily (In the Garden I) got a 1st and a Judges Recognition for machine quilting.

“In Her Arms” got a 2nd place. (It is hard competing against yourself. Both of my large curved pieced quilts ended up in the same category.)

“Serenity” – my fairy quilt got a 3rd in the art quilt category.

“Hummingbirds in my Garden” – the whole cloth quilt got a 3rd place.

The show set-up is just beautiful and it is so much fun to look at all the fabulous quilts. I will try to post pictures of the show soon. Tomorrow we start teaching classes!

Opening Night

Published on 02/25/10

The Pensacola Quilter’s Guild quilt show preview is tonight. I am so excited! It has been a wonderful 2 days getting everything set-up for the show. I am so glad that I was able to take time off of work. It is amazing the number of people it takes and the organization needed to pull it off. My hat is off to Angie, our show chairman, for her amazing job.
