I got some good new this week. Two of my pieces. Rooflines #2 and Rooflines #8 have been accepted into the SAQA special exhibit called Tactile Architecture. This exhibit will be at the International Quilt Festival in November 2014. I haven”t really tried to enter many shows so this was encouraging.

When I left off last time, I was undecided about whether to enter my piece into Artprize 2014. I did decide to try with it.  I will let others decide if it is a good fit for their venue or not. I guess I am tired of being indecisive with my art. My motto will be just try. Or just do the work perhaps, earlier ( ahem) , be more confident of it and try again at a later date.

Gail Baar sent me this great catalog from the QUILTS: The New Geometry exhibit.  I do love the introduction that the curator, Sue Benner wrote. It is one of the most well written summaries of the art quilt.  Try calling the museum for it as it would be a great addition to your library. Thank you Gail!

It is finally thinking of spring here!  Since I am not ready to show you what I am working on right now, here’s a few spring pictures for you.

My favorite daffodils

I love their gradated centers.

The only set of tulips this year!

Critters ate all my tulips but this last bunch. I might stick to daffodil bulbs next year.

I am so excited to pick my daughter up form college this week. I have missed her so much this year. Off to Iowa at the end of the week and maybe I will send you some cow pictures. 🙂
