Snow!

What a beautiful morning! It has been snowing since about 8:00 last night and it's almost 10:00 am on Sunday morning. It's still coming down. It's so beautiful. We already had about 4" on the ground from last weekend and it looks like another 4 or 5" on top so far.

It's going to be a very quiet day. I wish I didn't have to go to work this afternoon and could just stay home in my warm and comfy house and sew. Oh well. All for now.

Wow, this was Easy

Who would have thought creating a blog would be this easy? I think the most difficult part was choosing the template I wanted to use!

I'm so excited because my picture appeared in the newspaper in front of my art quilt in an article about the show I'm in at the Ankeny Art Center. I'm part of a group of textile artists here in Iowa and this is our first gallery show! The artist's reception was last night and we had a pretty good turn out. I am very pleased.

I haven't been "quilting" that long. Only since 2000. So to be included in a show at this point in my fabric medium is really exciting.

As soon as I figure out how to post photos, I will.
