Hello Mary Anne, I’m being introduced into the wonderful world of infinite patience and quilts, and found your website through Google. I was looking for an illustration of a show winner (the Tolkien Tribute, as I am a Tolkien reader myself) and see you have a gorgeous photo of both quilter and quilt. Do you think I can use it to illustrate an article in my blog? I really don’t like to just grab anything without asking permission when possible 😉 So please let me know.
Looks like you were very busy. I think you ate at the same restaurant we did in Huston. We liked it so well we ate at Aquarium Restaurant (same company) in Denver. I also thought about the many states thing between East Coast and Out West and was impressed by the difference.
Awesome! we have been meaning to call! Jason wants to hear about your Houston adventure!
Oh Mary Anne, what an absolutely wonderful trip! I think Tom earned both wings and halo and deserves a Kiss!! Can’t wait to here more live on Monday:-).
Yes, we did do a session at the temple. Thanks for stopping by.
Looks like you had a wonderful time. Tom is a great helper to volunteer to serve. Did you do a session at the temple? So many fun thing to see. The quilts are amazing. I am sure the pictures do not do them justice. Glad the little quilter is back home safe and sound.
