Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
After not posting at all during November, I had good intentions to post several times during December. But the time has slipped away from me.
I spent quite a lot of time making two new quilts for the 2021 Grand National exhibition. I’m not ready to show them yet. I’ll know in February if they have been accepted for this Canadian exhibition that will travel for a couple of years to various venues across the country..
In November, I submitted 3 art quilts to Road to California’s virtual event called Road@Home. The event will be online from January 20 to 23, 2021. I’m happy to say that all 3 of my entries were accepted.
I made 2 of these a few years ago, so they are not eligible for most quilt shows, as entries are usually restricted to those made in the past 2 or 3 years. So I was very happy to be able to enter them in this show.
- Bad Moon Rising – I made this quilt in 2015 and blogged about it in 2016. It was part of an exhibit called Fly Me to the Moon which travelled for 3 years. I received my quilt back earlier this year, and I’m happy I can enter into another exhibition.
- Air of Elegance – I made this art quilt in 2014 for the Fibre Art Network’s exhibition called Canadiana, which toured from 2015 to 2017.
I also submitted several quilts to another virtual event – QuiltCon Together, which will be online in February 2021. Two of my quilts were accepted, both in the Small quilts category.
Yes, I did enter Please Touch This Quilt into 2 shows. I realized that one advantage of a virtual show is that I don’t have to physically send the quilt, so it gives me the option to enter in more shows. And, I love this little quilt, so want to give it as much exposure as I can.

Thanks for stopping by. Today, I’m linking up with Nina-Marie’s Off the Wall Friday.
