I’m thrilled to share that I will have all THREE of my photo entries on display at the Eye of the Quilter Exhibit in Houston this year! Since I don’t want to spoil the surprise, I won’t share THOSE three photos until Quilt Festival opens, but I will share a couple of my entries from past years. I just love seeing the photos, and this time I totally think that my Queen Anne’s Lace photo from this year needs to become a quilt! Last year, I only got one photo in, but it’s a keeper:
I navigate the world by ice cream stores. When I taught at Vermont Quilt Festival, of COURSE I made the pilgrimage to the original Ben and Jerry’s (twice!). The theme this year was “Favorite Things.” Ahem!
To go back to the beginning…..
Circles Collage was one of my first entries accepted to Eye of the Quilter. Look at all that design potential!
In 2011, I had three accepted with the theme of Friendship:
Pigwidgeon on top of Yeti. ‘Widgeon was just a puppy, and he loved his big dumb dog!
And 2011 was the year Mama finally joined her Mama. The bottom right photo is the last I took of her.
Say Hi to Gramma is a collage honoring my mom, who died that year. The photo in the bottom center is our last Mother’s Day together.
My Frayed Edges friends are another source of joy in life:

For some reason, I hadn’t heard of The Eye of the Quilter. Are all the photographs just that photographs or are they also interpreted into quilts? I really love all of your pictures, they really do capture the themes! Thanks for sharing!
