Vista's in "Quilting Arts"

     What a joy it is to share our members accomplishments. Vista Mahan is published in the current April/May edition of Quilting Arts magazine!  She entered the mini prayer flag reader challenge and was 1 of 23 chosen to go into the magazine. Three cheers for Vista!!

     I was going to send a post out about the magazine because this edition is featuring portrait quilts. How timely is this since our challenge for 2014 is a self portrait? If you do not have a subscription, you will want to pick up a copy at Hobby Lobby or Joann's. There were so many good ones submitted  (and Vista's set was chosen from all of them)  they have put together a downloadable eBook. I am assuming you can download this even if you do not have a subscription. Go to www.quiltingdaily.com. and look under the tab called Free Resources. Click Online Extras, next click Fly Your Flag.

     The quality of the flags submitted is fantastic. Yea to Vista for standing with the best of them. I know you will want to see them and send her a note of congratulations.

     I do hope everyone is thinking about what art quilts you would like to hang at the CDM in September. Our quilts, along with the two the children are making, will hang the entire month. Mark your calendars for the reception Thursday evening September 11 from 6:00 to 7:30. What fun to be there as a group and get to oooh and ahhh over our work!  If you would like to make something special for the occasion, please do.

Take time to create,

Denise
