after 10 years

After 10 years and 10 billion classes my Polar Bear Quilt has just bee accepted for Houston Quilt Show.  I remember the first time I registered for a class...It was the last week in August and I had just moved to Texas.  I picked out 5 classes.  Those days you had to wait for a letter to see if you got accepted (now its current time on-line).  Early Oct I had to tell my school pricipal I'd been accepted to 4.  I agonized how a newbie could miss a week of school.  Love that boss.  He let me go.  Also a shout-out for Jennifer Day:  that class I took in Santa Fe:  she taught thread painting.  I felt like I sucked her brain.  I love thread painting:  I turn on a talking book:  murder mayhem and zone out.
