Found, though I didn't know it was lost.

A quick shout out to Heather over at Modern Day Quilts for posting about my workshop sample and mentioning the talk I'm giving tonight to the Austin Area Quilt Guild.
I've put together about 115 slides of work that spans about 20 years. For instance, this is the first quilt I ever made:

It fits a double bed and is intensely hand quilted. What was I thinking?
Also, here's a quilt I totally forgot about:

I made it as a commission years ago and when I came across the slide I actually said, "Hey, I completely forgot this quilt existed.
More from the faulty memory archives:

These quilts date back to a time when I had a professional photographer take slides for me, thus the black background. I must have scanned them into digital images at some point because there they were on my hard drive.
It's been fun to put together this retrospective and take some time to look at my work as it has evolved and discover quilts I hardly remember making. It's probably an important lesson about the value of documenting your work. I know I'm glad that while I have but a vague memory of these quilts and several others included in my presentation, my computer remembers them all. Thanks, Hal. :)
