HiCindy
I took one of your lectures in Houston, and loved it.
Am just looking at your website…wondering how you attach your quilts to the canvases. THink its a great idea. Thanks
Do you ever come to Alberta Canada at all? Would love to have you come to our guild for a workshop sometime!
Thanks again
