We had an artist talk at the gallery (Beacon Arts Building) to discuss the chains in the show. I was a bit more comfortable talking about my piece this time (I was a nervous wreck on the video). The video is on YouTube and it contains adult content, but it's really good. So here I am talking up a storm. Mat (Gleason) grabbed my camera and took a couple of shots of me.
We had a great turn out (about 60 people). We'll see who shows up at the next one.

My beautiful neighbor Anelize is having a baby boy, so I made a quilt for her as her shower was TODAY. I finished it this morning, label and all. It was well received. It's the super nine patch pattern that works so well for a baby quilt. Our version (I&M Quilters) is larger than the original pattern. Plus, I didn't cut it in the traditional way, because I didn't want the three quilts with the three fabrics. I cut it individually and it worked out well. A bit more work, but well worth it.

Oh, and I'm in a new show. Photos to follow when there's something to show.
