In case you missed my
mention of the Tokyo
Quilt Festival‘s invitation in our Midweek Creative Nudge, an English
translation page has been posted by the organizers of this show, and they have
asked me to put out the word to Western quilters, that your quilts are welcome
for submission for the January 2020 Tokyo
Quilt Festival! Click through here to our blog for the
link to the submission page…the deadline is in September and they are
requesting that physical photos be mailed with the application, so plan to send
out your entry in August to beat the submission deadline.
My 10 year old twin nephews are visiting this week: one is a musician and one
is an artist. I don’t see any grandkids on the horizon yet, so it is fun to
spend time with these creative kids and share our own family traditions in the
arts.
Sophie has just come home from the CU Boulder Orchestra Camp. She is a rising
Senior so she is one of the big kids this year. She practiced and played so
much this week, she had a bruise on her neck. Monday is her 17th birthday. Can
you believe it? Next week she will be in Omaha Nebraska with Mason at the
Rockley Foundation piano sale and fundraiser. If you live in the Omaha area and
are interested in buying a piano or string instrument, 2 of my kids will be
there to help you.
I was excited to hear that my quilt “A Mission of Love – Kathy
Price” has been accepted into “A Better World” exhibit which
will premier in Houston this Fall. My “Polar Bear Eclipsed” will also
be in the “Endangered Species” exhibit there. Congratulations to all
the artists accepted into these exhibits, and to the IQA quilt exhibits in
Houston this fall!
sharing your Passion for Fabric…
Luana and Paul
