I'm In!

It's been a long time since I've had a quilt juried into an exhibition, longer still since I even tried. It was becoming a hassle, what with rising entry fees and shipping costs and getting that excellent photo to send along. But Sacred Threads is an exhibit I've wanted to be a part of since its inception. I just never had the right quilt ready at the right time to give it a go. That is, until this year. When the call for entries went out earlier this year, I sucked it up and did what I needed to do, because in my mind, I now had the two perfect quilts for this exhibit: Life's End and Bubble Prayers - Release.

Acceptance e-mails went out yesterday, and to my utter relief and pleasure, both of my quilts made the cut. To see a complete list of Artists and Artwork accepted plus info about the exhibit itself, go to Sacred Threads website here.

To say I'm excited is an understatement!

Hi Sheila, thanks for sharing this moment of victory.
As Chris said in her comment, I too know how personal those quilts are for you and I add, as I followed the creation of Bubbles of prayer, what they meant.
Thanks a lot for sharing your life as well your art pieces.

Thank you all for your show of support! You are so right about how much this means to me... and to get these rah rahs from my support group (you DO know you're my support group, don't you?) makes it even better!
