Going to QuiltCon!
Well, the biggest surprise this week is that I’m leaving tomorrow for QuiltCon, a completely last-minute decision that I’m pretty darn happy about! My reasons for going to QuiltCon: 1) Meeting online quilting friends in person is awesome. 2) The next QuiltCon isn’t until 2015. By that time, we’ll all drive around in flying cars […]
