Quilting in the Garden – remember the Succulents quilt I made in July and entered in the Alden Lane Nursery Quilting in the Garden quilt show? At the end of September, I visited my friend Heidi who lives near San Francisco, and we attended the quilt show in Livermore. There were more than 250 beautiful quilts hanging among the majestic oak trees, including 3 of my quilts.
Curated Quilts STARS issue – in June, I submitted two mini quilts for the Curated Quilts Star mini challenge. I also submitted a few of my larger star-themed quilts for the Gallery section. ‘Twinkle Stars’ was selected for the mini challenge, and ‘Scrappy Stars’ was included in the Gallery.
I just received my mini quilt and my copy of the STARS issue in the mail. I’m looking forward to reading it cover to cover.
IAD Anonymous Show – I will have 3 pieces in the annual International Artists Day Anonymous Show at 100 Braid St Studios in New Westminster BC. There will be over 250 pieces of artwork, including oil & acrylic paintings, textile art, photography and mixed media pieces. All pieces are 12 x 12 inches and all are priced at $150.
The art will be hung so the names of the artists are hidden. When an artwork is purchased, the art is removed from the display wall and the artist’s name revealed. Here’s a photo from last year’s show.
The art will be on display from October 25 to 27, 2019, starting with a Gala Opening the evening of Friday, October 25th. Click here for more information.
Because it’s an anonymous show, I can’t yet reveal my pieces. After the festival is over, I’ll do a blog post about my 3 pieces.

How fabulous for you to have your art in such awesome places!!! Love your Twinkle Stars!!
Great exhibit opportunities! I like the concept of the anonymous sale. Good luck and I look forward to seeing the 3 pieces discussed.
Good for you! I have gotten lazy about submitting anywhere so maybe you have inspired me to get in gear.
It was lovely to see you and your beautiful quilt art!! It’s especially wonderful you went out of your way to use succulent fabric created by my San Francisco Bay Area fabric art friend Ann DuMont #MsDumont. Heidi ( your friend who also happens to be your sister-in-law.)
Wow! Beautiful work in beautiful exhibitions! I’d love to see the Livermore show – it looks magical!
