June was a very busy month!\u00a0 It’s the beginning of July, and I just realized I haven’t posted since May 21st.<\/p>\n

At the beginning of June, my husband and I spent a very enjoyable week in New York City.\u00a0 I took lots of photos, and I’m sure some of them will provide inspiration for future art quilts.\u00a0 Here are some of my favorite NYC memories.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We returned home from NYC, and the following week I traveled to Toronto for Quilt Canada, where I had two quilts accepted to the National Juried Show.\u00a0\u00a0 I’m thrilled to say that my quilt ‘Eclipse’ won the 2nd place award in the Modern category.\u00a0 You can see all of the award-winning entries here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We spent the next 3 days attending lectures and events, shopping in the merchant mall, meeting friends and, of course, viewing hundreds of gorgeous quilts!\u00a0 Here are just a few of my favorites.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

An Orange Orange, by Jennifer Dyck<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Fungi, by Jan Hall<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Kimono for a Eucalyptus, by Maggie Vanderweit<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Nautical Composition Number 1, by Laura Piggott<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Tryptically Urban, by Paula Jolly<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

In between all that travel (and an occasional stint at my day job), I was working on a commission portrait quilt.\u00a0 I finished it a couple of days ago.\u00a0 As with most of my portrait quilts, it started with a photo, from which I made a line drawing, then created the shapes with fused fabrics, and quilted it.\u00a0 The finished size is 12 x 12 inches.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So that’s what I did in June.\u00a0 I don’t have any travel scheduled for July or August, so I plan to spend a lot more time in my studio producing new work, and posting more frequently to my blog.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thanks for stopping by.\u00a0 Today, I\u2019m linking up with these blogs \u2013 click on the links below, where you\u2019ll find many other creative projects to inspire you.<\/p>\n
