Woo Woo!

Okay, y'all may have heard me talking about my wonderful daughter's contributions to quilting. Well, this weekend is the Omaha Quilt Guild Show. For a local guild, its huge (I believe Omaha is one of the biggest guilds in the US). Well, she entered her coat, "Cherry Blossoms in the Concrete Jungle" into the show. The item is based around a picture she took of the cherry blossoms in DC falling on the cement walking path. Its item #97 in the show. This is her first show. Who would'a thunk it? She got third place in the wearables category! Not too bad for an 18-year-old girl. Daddy and Mommy are appropriately proud. Frank Reid

Good for her! She's obviously got the bug! Is there a picture posted anywhere so we can see the prize winner?

That jacket is gorgeous. Just wonderful! You must be incredibly proud, and so must your daughter. Wonderful work. Now, can she teach me to do that????

Uh, no. Sore subject. We are now on our 4th builder. The last three all pulled out for various reasons (hey Frank, I just got asked to build 100 homes in Winterpark Colorado...). Hopefully, the bank will like this newest bid and we can break ground. Thanks all for the kind words on the jacket. It really is beautiful and yes, we are very proud. She's also pretty excited herself. Frank Reid
