At the the VMQG December guild meeting<\/a> on Monday night, we all received our scrap bag challenge and swap<\/a> creations.\"\"<\/p>\n

I made 2 mug rugs for Arita from her beautiful peach, yellow, orange and pink scraps.\u00a0 It was fun to work with these lovely colors – but it appears I neglected to take any photos after I finished them!<\/em>\u00a0 But you can see them in the photo above – Arita is third from the left in the front row.\u00a0 And I received this delightful fabric container for my ‘Precious Snippets’ (what a great description for scraps!), made by Heather D. from my scraps.\"DSCN0251\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I learned at the guild meeting that one of our VMQG group quilts has been\u00a0been submitted to the juried quilt show at QuiltCon<\/a>, the inaugural convention and quilt show of The Modern Quilt Guild, which will be held February 21-24, 2013 in Austin, TX. \u00a0 Our quilt was put together<\/a> and quilted by Paul<\/a>, and it’s beautiful.\"Oh<\/a><\/p>\n

An online group I belong to \u2013 a team of quilters who sell on Etsy, called the Quiltsy Team<\/a> made a group quilt last year, which we called the Sisterhood of the Travelling Quilt, because the blocks were created by members from from Canada, Israel and 22 different U.S. states.\u00a0 It has also been entered in the QuiltCon show. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My entry to the Quilting Arts Magazine reader challenge ‘Tea or Coffee?’ was selected as a finalist, so I will be sending it to Quilting Arts Magazine, and I will hope to see it published in the April\/May 2013 issue.<\/p>\n

As you probably know, I sell my quilts on Etsy<\/a> where I have an online shop<\/a>.\u00a0 Etsy sends out a daily email called Etsy Finds<\/a>, and today it features my self-portrait quilt.\u00a0 I’m getting a lot of views on my shop today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
