Asking the Experts

A week or so ago I wrote a post about my "pig dilemma."  See it HERE.
Ya see, I'm pretty good at quilting...using a pattern...but not so good at creating something on my own.

Well, no one posted suggestions.....(insert sad face here.)


What to do, what to do...

Then it occurred to me ... FACEBOOK!  There I will find expert quilters.  

I could simply ask! Well, dah.

My number-one, favorite quilt designer is Dawn White of First Light Designs.  So creative and my favorite person to hang around with when I'm in Portland...well, second favorite...after my daughter, Ana.  (Hope to see you in August, Dawn.)

A shout out to MaryJo Boyd of The Quilt Bear.... we met by accident about 5 years ago in (of all places) Lincoln, Nebraska and who I get to hang with when I return to (of all places) Lincoln, Nebraska every March.  Creative and sweet and my Spiritual Sister. (Love you, M.J.)

I don't want to forget my brand new BFF, Terry Waldron,
who I've yet to meet face-to-face but her quilts are stunning!  AND, she teaches classes!
There is one coming up in October in Palm Springs...follow this LINK.
You MUST check out her website!
(We're still trying to plan a lunch date.)

So, what do you say, creative ladies, can you help me?

I can't post this "public" on FB....the intended family may see it and that would spoil the surprise.... I posted it as "custom" to only a few quilter-type people...at least I HOPE that's what I did.
