The lovely and talented Judy Coates Perez took this shot of me on the TV in the green room during my taping. The segments will appear in next season's Quilting Arts TV.
I also shot a little promotional video for my new book. See it over there! I am really excited for you all to see it.
The busyness continues, albeit in Austin rather than Cleveland. As I've mentioned before, I'm going to be a vendor at the Austin Area Quilt Guild Show, September 17-19. I should mention that I'll only be at the show on Friday, September 17 and Sunday, September 19. As anyone who owns a Jewish calendar already knows, Saturday, September 18 is Yom Kippur. I have arranged for my very crafty neighbor to run my booth. So, stop by on Friday or Sunday to say hello to me or Saturday to meet Rachel the neighbor. Either way, I hope you'll make it down to the Palmer Events Center because I'm making quite a few new things just for the show.
Loads of stitch in dye bundles.
My Patches Camera Straps.
Quarter yard pieces of my hand dyed and patterned fabric.
Add to these items, I'll have copies of all my patterns plus a new, amazingly professional version of my Strips and Bricks quilt pattern. I'll also be debuting the coaster kits I mentioned previously and showing off some of my favorite quilts, including The Cupcake Quilt.
And, frankly, much more.
So, if you live in Austin, or nearby, or are planning on visiting Austin, you should definitely stop by and not just because I'm giving away two free tickets. Oh, I guess I hadn't mentioned that. Well, aren't you glad you stuck with this post. Yes, indeed, the lovely folks at the Austin Area Quilt Guild have given me two free tickets to this once-every-two-years event to giveaway to one of you. Leave a comment and I'll announce a winner on Sunday, September 12.

Now I'm even more disappointed that the Austin show is over Yom Kippur. Too hard to get there and back on Sunday. Rats! Shana Tova

Thank you for that.
My brother lives in Austin. I don't know how excited he will be when I ask him to drop by the quilt show and pick up something for me. But I will ask him. :)
Can't wait to peruse your booth!
Very exciting! Congrats on all the good busy-ness!
I really wish that our paths had crossed while in Cleveland, as I would have greatly enjoyed being able to meet you in person! Congrats on your newest book, and hope the Austin show is fabulous! (My sister lives in Austin, but she expresses herself in song, not stitch.)
Wow, lots of excitment. Congrats on your book and on the tv show and all of it! Sorry I can't come to Austin from Germany, so don't count me in on the tickets. Have fun! oh, and I'm looking forward to sharing with you some malka-inspired patchwork.
I would LOVE to go as your esteemed guest!! I am looking forward to seeing your beautiful work in person.
Wow, congratulations on the book and tv show! I wish I was remotely close to Austin to have a browse through your booth, looks like it will have lots of treasures.
I think I *have* to go to the quilt show now to see some of your beautiful things in person.
Very exciting! I'll try to come by the quilting show next weekend; I really enjoy your blog and your work. Inspiring!
Under the wire here, but thought I'd try anyway -- I would love to win the tickets!
