Time Addendum

I think everyone has posted, except those with personal challenges going on at this time.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you all for mending, healing and comfort for you and your loved ones.

First of all, I apologize for all the double and triple comment posts by me.  I'm still not sure how that happened!!?

Now to the heart of the matter.  I am touched by so many of your quilts and back stories for them.  Many of you were inspired by sad, difficult and challenging situations and events in your lives. You created beautiful and moving works of art that you will have forever out of them.  What to me seemed like an impersonal theme was so personally moving for others really makes me reflective on my membership in this group.  It has enriched my life in so many ways.  You are such a special collection of amazing, talented and interesting women who I am so glad I was able to get to know at our retreat at Tricia's.  My wish is for us ALL to be able to meet in the future and to continue this fulfilling challenge as long as possible!!!

Amd now on to CIRCLE - I already can't wait!!

Happy quilting, stitching, painting, screen printing, photoshopping  . . . . . . .

    Thanks, Nedra ! I agree with you 100 %
    At times, completing a challenge can be difficult, and yet I can't imagine not being a part of this incredibly wonderful and talented group of women / artists!
    Thank you all again for your love, support and prayers for Greg and me during these past several months..... I've leaned on you more than you could ever realize. Peace & blessings, Kathy

    My dear Mavens--Nedra, indeed, said it so very very well! As for Houston, Carolyn and I are going, and this time we are going on Tuesday instead of Wednesday. We are already getting excited! We booked our room at the Hilton as soon as we could do so. Those of you going be thinking of which night we can have our mini reunion! I think we ought to go back to the place across the street, since the one where we went in 2014 was so noisy and crowded--hard to visit!! Love to all of you, Alice

    Nedra - Amen! You said it so well. I do hope we can do something like that again! I pretty much live in Houston - I will very much be at the show - taking classes only Monday, Tuesday and Wed (and Sunday AM) during the day - not very much I wanted to take but I did want to be there soaking in the show environment before it opened.

    So very well said Nedra, I completely agree. I feel so fortunate to part of such an accomplished and talented group of artists, my life is so much richer because of my being a member of The Material Mavens.
