But that feeling was nothing compared to the crazy, over-the-moon, little-kid-like excitement I felt when I rounded the corner at the show and saw my quilt hanging there. My quilt! I can't even express how excited/anxious/scared/humbled I felt (and still feel).
That's my quilt - the red one! |

Dudes—I felt like an artist! I've never felt like that about anything I've made (I mean, not since I was four year old and drew what I still feel is one of the best Crayola renderings of a "family-under-blue-sky-by-house-with-chimney" in existence to date).
Anyway, here is my "Stars in Stripes" quilt, pieced and designed by yours truly, and quilted by the inimitable Angela Walters.
Happy stitching!
Kelly

That is GORGEOUS!
Your mom took me over to show me your quilt. It was beautiful! You should have stopped by the APQS booth to say hi! She filled me in on your little world and it sounds like you are doing GREAT! I'm glad I found your blog!
Thanks Crys and Angela!
Angela, I drifted by your booth a few times, but you were with somebody and I didn't want to interrupt. I'll definitely catch up with you at QM!!! I hope all is well with you! :-)
Oh, I love it, Kelly. So beautiful. Good for you. I am trying to decide if I should go to quilt market in May. Will you be there? April
Thanks for a great rread
