How many of you believe that things happen for a reason? It's uncanny how being in the right place at the right time can make a difference. Two years ago, I stayed on for festival in Houston after doing quilt market. I was away from home for 14 days but because I did that I met two wonderful women that I will never forget. Mary Hutton and Lisa Johnson came in my booth more than a usual amount of times during festival. Oh, they would wander off to see what was there, but kept coming back. We had a great time together. They were also the ones that encouraged their guild to invite me to be a guest speaker at the August meeting of the Prairie Quilt Guild in Wichita, Kansas. I just returned from Wichita where I taught two all day classes and spoke at their afternoon and night meeting. You see, this guild has around 900 of the most delightful members. Here are a few pictures taken while I was there. A special thank you from the bottom of my heart for letting me be a part of your group and letting me show you all 38 quilts in my pattern line.
