Counting the Days!

In 63 more days the International Quilt Association will be hosting the annual International Quilt Festival at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas and where do you think I will be? You guessed it! With three of my other closest and dearest friends along with THOUSANDS of other friends from across the world sharing the same common interest.

Here are some wonderful inspiring photos I have taken over the past two years.

The thread work on these 3 is just amazing!

One panel was not quit enough to see the beauty in this

How would you like to wear one of these to a party girls?

And the lovely Philippa Naylor

take a closer look ~ isn't it stunning!

I thoroughly enjoyed her class

and Robbi Joy Eklow ~ now this gal is a riot! She is also known as "The Goddess of the Last Minute" A girl after my own heart

The Best of Show was awarded to the very talented Sharon Schamber
Okay now how many times can I say amazing?

Oh how I can't wait to go!! The talent of so many and the inspiration that they share is just overwhelming.

So our room has been booked for close to a year now, our airfare is purchased, I've sent in my registration, enrolled for classes (I want to learn from the best) and my suitcase is out. We pack very little, save lots of money, carry snacks, laugh so hard it hurts, return with tired feet and bulging suit cases and have memories that last a life time. So will you be joining us?

Anticipating the wonders I will see,

Sharon
