The only photo I took was this one and it's not the greatest shot...the sun wasn't cooperative that morning. Some visitors knew my work from this blog and guessed I was the blogger by my pigtails. Clearly I should've worn my purple boots and then they'd have known me for sure!

On The Road in Amherst
Weeks have a tendency to fly by, eh? All my planning and plotting to get Project: Kona Nerds Unite! finished up in time for the Fiber Art Festival in Amherst last weekend failed but I was able to send along some of my other pieces instead to be part of our guilds fabulous display in the Amherst Town Hall. The festival came and went so fast and what a time it was!! I met lots of people, saw lots of fun things, did a little fabric shopping, hung out with my quilty peeps, and really enjoyed myself. It was satisfying to see 5 pieces of my work hanging in our show, I hadn't participated in anything like this ever before. I forgot to take photos but not to worry...there are lots of them floating around. I was lucky enough to tag along with my friend Adrienne for the weekend and she got lots of photos so you can see and read about our fun at the festival on her blogpost over at Chezzetcook Modern Quilts. There are also tales of our weekend on the blogs of several guild mates, so hop on over to Maritime Modern Quilt Guild's Blog and have yourself a gander.

It was a lovely little show, wasn't it? My only regret is that you, Ade and I were there on opposite days. It would have been great to hang with you! Congrats on the win!
