Oh, so long ago

August 14th, in just about a month, I will be featured on The Quilt Show. The staff from this computer based show featuring Alex Anderson and Ricky Timms paid a visit to my home in Washington DC in July of 2015. Now just over a year later the episode with my studio visit will run for everyone to see. I am very excited. This week I had to send some additional photos of me, during my early quilting years. Here they are...

This photo is from 1986. I am holding a Nine Patch quilt I made that year. It is the first photo I used for the editor's letter at the beginning of my tenure as editor.

This photo was made just a few years later. I think about 1989, but I am not sure. The quilt is made using entries in our annual block contest. 

This photo was taken last year in my studio here in Washington DC. My studio has never been so clean.
