Something fun to share today. Some of the instructors/lecturers for QuiltCon 2016 were announced today. And I am one of them! I knew the announcement was coming and have been checking the site for a few days anxiously waiting to see who else would be teaching.
I am so honored (and freaking out a little) to be a part of such a talented group! There will be more teachers announced in May as well as classes we'll be teaching.
QuiltCon 2016 is hosted by the Modern Quilt Guild will be held in Pasadena California. There will be a variety of classes, lectures, exhibits and vendors available and is open to the general public. For more information, visit the QuiltCon website.
A while back, my brother and I were joking about who we'd dress up as if we went to a local ComicCon. Then he half-jokingly said, "Oh, someone should start a QuiltCon - then you could go to that!" I proudly told him there actually was such a thing. And this year I'm going!

Congratulations! You most certainly deserve to be in this group of presenters! Pasadena will be a wonderful place to present at that time of year. You usually take your children so they will be able to swim in outdoor pools that are too cold for native Californians, but for sturdy Utahns, heated pools are a piece of cake.

Thanks Donna! I can't wait! I love SoCal in mid Feb - esp compared to Utah that time of year!
Elaine Papworth
You will be wonderful, as usual! I wish Erin and I could come see you again. Hugs!
Amy Smart
Aww Thanks, Elaine. You are always so sweet. I sure love you both. xoxox
