One Quilt Maverick at a time, that's what I say!
Here's Keryn all the way from Australia with a few stops in between which you can read about on her blog. Isn't she sweet? I went to the Machine Quilter's Showcase which is held in Overland Park, KS each year. It is only about 20 minutes away, so this was an easy trip to get to see another Maverick. We are standing in front of her long arm quilting designs, so take a good look, too.
I will post some pictures of the quilts later on tonight. For now, I am going to go to dinner with another on-line friend from Ohio who is in town for the same MQS. Do you think if I wait long enough, everyone will come to me?
Oh! And here's a close up of the heart beads I got at the Bead Blast the other day.
Hmm, I dunno, might be awhile before I make it to Kansas... Tho I do get to Colorado occasionally and that's at least just across the state line.
ReplyDeleteKeryn and Sharon - nice to see you both. There's a poem in there somewehre.
Those hearts are so gorgeous and fragile looking. Love the copper spirals too.
Oh, how neat!! I'm so glad that you got to meet another Maverick!
ReplyDeleteLOVE those beads....
ReplyDeleteOh how fun you met up with Keryn! Laura and I both tried to meet up with her at paducah, but we missed her. I'm dying to see your pics of the quilts!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! Thanks for sharing the picture!
ReplyDeleteLucky you meeting Keryn! I tried to meet up with her at Paducah but she wasn't in the booth at that time.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty beads..especially the hearts. They look so delicate.
ReplyDeleteI might have to travel to that MQS one time...I bet they have lots of longarms there huh?? Kansas isn't too far from me...couple days if you stop. But do-able, you never know.
Thanks for the closeup of the heart beads! I especially love the ones in the bottom picture - the slick shine of them makes me want to reach out and touch.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful that you got to connect with Keryn!! And from such a distance...love the beads..really great colors!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting the picture Sharon, and for coming to visit me. Sorry I missed everyone else, it's such a thrill to meet a friend for the first time in person!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the terrific tease of pictures from MQS, Sharon. That wholecloth! WOW!
ReplyDeleteAnd so nice that you got to meet *our* Keryn!
Love the close-up of your beads...yum!
