Year in Review – 2020.01.29

Better late than never, here’s a recap of my activities and accomplishments in 2019.

Making art – I created more than 20 art quilts and other fiber art with a variety of themes and techniques.  Many of them are shown below.

Exhibiting my art – I submitted my work to 14 juried shows and challenges, and had work accepted into about half of them.   I also created work for several group exhibits and art auctions.

Year of travel – this is how I think of 2019. I had several great trips this year (in fact, when I look at the list below, I’m surprised at how many there were).

• February/March – my husband and I left the cold snowy weather in the Vancouver BC area to spend 3 weeks with our friends who live in Panama.
• March – a week after we returned from Panama, I flew to Toronto to teach two workshops for the York Heritage Quilters Guild.
• April – in mid-April I drove to Campbell River and nearby Quadra Island to do a trunk show and teach two workshops.
• April – at the end of April, I flew to San Jose for the annual SAQA Conference.
• June – my annual trip to Quilt Canada. This year it was held in Ottawa
• July/August – a 2-week trip to NYC and England with my sister Anne. We traveled with Craftours from NYC to Birmingham for 2 days at the Festival of Quilts. Then we toured through English towns and countryside, to London for 2 days, then back to NYC.
• September – traveled to Naniamo BC for the annual conference of the Fibre Art Network. 
• September – at the end of September, I visited my friend Heidi who lives near San Francisco, and we attended the Alden Lane Nursery Quilting in the Garden quilt show.
• December – at the end of December, we traveled back to Panama to visit our friends. We spent 3.5 wonderful weeks there – which is why I haven’t posted until now.

Instagram – I find myself posting on Instagram much more frequently than I write blog posts (maybe because of all those trips?).
