Road to California Win!

I am very happy to say that my piece, Port of Cassis, won Outstanding Art Quilt at Road to California last week! It was very nice to hear. I have been searching on the internet for other 2011 winners but haven't found them yet. They seem to be slow at posting on web prize winners. One day I would like to go there to the show. I imagine there are lots of things to see! Maybe I will teach there one year soon. Right now I continue to have writer's block on what big piece to work on next. A friend has thousands of pictures from there years in China that I am going to look at and see if I can find something to use. It's great to have access to resources like that. We'll see what I come up with!



Right now I'm working on some abstract designs only using my scraps. I have two large garbage bags full of scraps I have been collecting over the years. I would like to use them some how but don't think I am even going to put a dent in the mess! Here is a picture of my pile. I don't know what I will eventually do with all these scraps. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know! I will also use some of them for some shredded designs like Noriko Endo does.
