On this International Women’s Day, I’d like to introduce you to my Aunt Diana. She has influenced me and my perspective on Independence more than she could know. She travelled the world, bringing back trinkets from her trips to Europe, Egypt, Mexico. She accompanied me (and mom and sisters) on our first international trip to Canada when I was 16. She showed me that women can be strong, career-minded, independent, curious and travel as much as they want to. This week, she drove herself up from Sacramento to celebrate my dad/her brother’s birthday with us. She has the best stories of adventures. She inspires me to keep exploring, learning and doing more. I’m so grateful to have spent so much time with her for so many summers; it changed me in all the right ways. We’re doing Illinois this week and I’m tickled pink that I found this little Lincoln on some old @alexanderhenryfabrics (🙏🏻RIP) to use for the center of my log cabin. 😍#quartermillennialquilt 🪡 Four days of classes at @sewexpo and every one sold out 😳 I had such a great time with everyone, but honestly so glad to be home for a couple weeks! It’s Thursday, so there are new states for the Quarter Millennial Quilt. We’re also in Puyallup, so the local Starbucks was our office. 🤣 This week it’s Mississippi and Indiana! 👉🏻👉🏻 Sasquatch is coming for us at @sewexpo! 🤣 It was so fun to see folks with the Elemental Coats at the show —thanks to everyone who stopped, said hi, took pics with me, etc. What a wonderful trip this has been. #quiltcon #quiltcoat I picked up some stickers and a badge from @latifahsaafirstudios at QuiltCon, of course. ❤️ @evilolive_quilts gifted me a QuiltCon friendship bracelet and thread conditioner. I’m kinda giddy about the thread conditioner. 😘 #handsewing You might not know I have a slow-growing library of quilt-related children’s books, but I’m always looking to add to it. On the first day of QuiltCon, I had the joy of meeting Tangular Irby and hearing her story about her grandmothers, both Gee’s Bend quilters, and her book “Pearl and her Gee’s Bend Quilt.” I’m so glad i was able to see this exhibition of the Gee’s Bend quilts at the show, learn a little about hand quilting and see the quilts in-person.  I’m still really hoping I can make it to an Airing of the Quilts one of these days. #geesbend #kidsquiltbooks
