HOT!


Hot off the Press!!!


As the children streamed through my door after school today, my youngest presented me with a UPS package. I opened it to find this happy little pack of papers. I have to say I was so happy. I looked through all the pages to find a book that is to my liking. I couldn't contain myself, I had to peruse all the pages, even though my babykins was nursing on my lap. That's okay, I am sure he doesn't mind piles of papers on top his head, right?

What a fun experience this has been. I love seeing my quilts in this new "light," and I even miss them. Someday, my quilts and I will meet again. I have loved working with Martingale Publishing. Every stop along the way has been made easy for me. They have been so helpful, and I love the product we are putting out. HOW FUN! So, now comes the process of proofing. I hope I can catch any and all mistakes, so my future readers can have an enjoyable quilting process.

HIP HIP HOORAY!

  3. I was going to say how proud I am of you, but some stranger wrote it before me. Lame! But since I'm your (favorite) sister, I'm sure it'll mean more coming from me. NICE WORK! I'm excited for you and congrats are definitely in order :).

  4. Very very cool. I was just sitting here reading and thinking what an amazing accomplishment which lead to my next thought "I would never follow through on anything that big and amazing!" So here's to you my uber-talented and dedicated sis-in-law, YOU ROCK! Congrats.
