A Centered Journey
The letter came that there was no room in the show for my quilt. I told my hubby I was disappointed, but I would get over it. I was to busy to dwell on this negative response. But, as I think about it, I think "not having room in the show" is a nice way of saying your quilt didn't measure up.
I like my quilt and it speaks to me. I think that is the most important element. Quilts send various messages--to the maker, the receiver, the person who views it hanging on a wall. So my quilt may not have been unique enough for a quilt show, but it is unique to me. Maybe I will enter in another show and it will receive a positive nod. Or maybe it will hang in my sewing and be my personal inspiration. Either way it is a work of a life's journey and contains wonderful memories. Have a great week and Happy Quilting!
