You have GOT to check out some of these quilts!


The first three are invitational quilts in larger sizes by some truly amazing celebrity quilters, but the rest include some famous art quilters, quilters from Japan and India, and then well...me ;)

I'm proud and honored to be included in this group but oh! I can't help but hope mine will at least garner a couple of bids!!! Oh my...such a group to have been included in!

So...if you can't afford to bid on Paula Nadelstern's invitational quilt and you know there is no way you can beat the mad crazy rush to win Andrea Balosky's.....well, don't forget angels are wonderful to have around any time of the year ;)
