Good Morning North Carolina and Virginia SAQA members. 
 I had the nicest surprise yesterday.  This beautiful bouquet of flowers was delivered to my home from our wonderful SAQA organization as a thank you for my service as your regional rep for the past 2 years.  So thoughtful and appreciated.

Now, in case you didn't know, there will be two new regional reps who are just taking over for Lori and me.....Susanne Miller Jones (who you met on a previous blog), and Kathie Briggs, who has just recently moved to NC.  So let's all welcome them with as much support and encouragement as we can!

Meanwhile, I'll be busy getting ready for my upcoming show at the Page-Walker Arts and History Center in Cary NC.  The show will open 26 October 2016 .                     The artist reception will be  28 October from 6-8 pm.  So mark your calendars and I hope to see you there.  This will be a solo show called, "The Rhythm of the Sea", and my fiber works will hang until 23 November

And, speaking of the sea,  summer is here and I am busy making my beach quilts for the galleries that carry my work.  So, I thought I'd leave you with a glimpse of some of the quilts from my beach series.  Hope you enjoy them!
