I took the last stitch in the last hanging sleeve about 9pm last night. I'm almost ready to load up the car and head northeast to Georgetown, California with my sister Gail. You know Gail, my PTD (pattern test dummy) on our very own road trip.
As the boxes containing my quilts arrived from all points east, I'd add them to the top of the pile. This old cradle is laboring under the weight of 14 quilts for the show and 2 quilts that will be my tablecloths.
This has been quite a journey, preparing for my first "show"......my first opportunity to be a featured artist. I'm so appreciative to the Needle Nellies in Georgetown for inviting me. I won't let you down!
I'll have tons of pictures of every aspect of the show so all of you can be a virtual attendee on Monday.....maybe Sunday if I'm not in a comatose state.
Many thanks go to all of you too, my blog readers, friends, family, customers, boss Lady Melissa and Mr. Joe, for your continued support and advice. I couldn't have done it without all of your emails, comments and good wishes. You're the best!
Soon,
Lynn

ReplyDeleteSounds exciting! Just today, I saw of two of your quits "for real" in the booth of The Christmas Shoppe at a show in PA. The quilts were Country Charmer and an applique quilt that looked like was maybe a BOM. And they had some of your other designs in patterns.
ReplyDeleteSo you are going to a show as a vendor to sell your patterns? Sounds like you are ready! Good luck!

WELL.....We, Needle Nellies, were just so excited to have Lynn and her sister, Gail join us at our Georgetown Outdoor Quilt Show. Her presentation of all her beautiful quilts and other "goodies" was such a treat.
