It was a busy month for me. I took painting classes in Pasadena for two days, then flew to Eureka, CA and dyed 100 yards of silk chiffon at Hanah Silk, came home and slept one night in my own bed then off to Houston for 11 days of non-stop activity and teaching. I did take two classes. One on How to print and sell your own patterns. I don't think I will do that. Then a Forum on Machine Quilting. I loved the work of an Austrailian woman, last name Bower, I want to try her technique. I have bought some Kafee Fassett prints to try it out. My quilt "Tidepools" looked good in the show. I didn't win, or place but I did show. The show was great this year. I am so amazed at the quality of work and creativity displayed. They are all so good!
They ran out of 50,000 tickets on Friday and had to print another 10,000 for Saturday and Sunday. Jammed with people. It did keep me from buying very much, so I guess that is okay.
In class Wednesday bring your sewing machine if you want to work on the animal quilt. I also left the dye in the closet so you can dye silk if you want. I am busy planning for the next session. It starts on Wednesday December 1 and we will have three weeks then two weeks of Holidays and back January 5 for the push to the fashion show in February.
