I discovered you in the recent magazine article (oh my, which magazine was it -- I get so many!). I met you through that article and it let me find you online. I poured over the gallery of your work and now I have found your blog. <br /><br />I am a quilter and have my own (2-year young) longarm business. Over the years I have either given away or sold my creations ~ mostly smaller items ~ and so now I am making wall hangings for my studio/home. I'm currently turning my 3-story entryway into a quilt gallery, so I was thinking that a quilt, like the one you taught us to make in the magazine article, would be fun to create and display. <br /><br />I keep thinking and thinking and wondering how you finish them on the back when you make the vertical columns of the offset strips. Don't know if you would mind sharing that technique or not. If not, I understand. I'll have to read past blogs -- perhaps the info is there. <br /><br />Anyway ~~ I just wanted you to know how much I love your breathtaking work and how much I admire your artistic gifts. I'll be reading more and someday when my quilting business has grown, I will purchase and treasure one of your wall hangings ~~ a goal I set recently!<br /><br />Your newest fan,<br />JackieWachiwihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15321251055625947672noreply@blogger.com
