Enter the World Quilt Show

If you are in the UK and have ever looked into entering quilt into the USA and just found it too expensive and too complicated then this is the show you should enter. They deal with all the bother all you have to do is send your quilt to Christine Porter in the UK. Your quilt will enter the World Quilt Show and then travel to three other big shows in the USA. A really great way of getting your work out there. And then it is sent back to you, no problems with having to re-import your own work, simples. And you get detailed judges comments back. You can also use the opportunity of having your quilt valued by a recognised quilt assessor (not something we cannot do over here)
Go here and download the entry form on the right. The deadline is coming up so download the form now and send in a photo of your work. It is as simple as that.
Enjoy the ride!

Sorry I haven't been posting lately but life has got seriously in the way. Family, house and other things do sometimes take precedence over blogging and quilting.
I will be back to normal (whatever that is) from the beginning of June or thereabouts with a fair wind behind my sails.

Meanwhile George and Rosie have been hunting amongst the bluebells.
The tulips have opened.
And then we have had continuous rain for at least two weeks. This is good considering we have a hose pipe ban because of the drought but enough is enough.

Frank has been practicing extreme drooling as only a Dogue de Bordeaux knows how,
This video is only a second or two long but it demonstrates it perfectly. It will either make you laugh or want to vomit. I love him so I laugh.
