Excitement at Apatchy this morning. I may have mentioned (a couple of hundred times) that my quilt ‘My Top 40’ was chosen to represent Queensland in the upcoming Australasian Quilt Convention in Melbourne. Indeed several Apatcheez will be making the pilgrimage to the Exhibition Building and will see it there.
So… the latest email from AQC talks about the quilts that are on show and provides a link to the ‘Best of the Best’ page – and whose quilt is featured do you think???? So proud – thanks Lesa for early phone call telling me!
Until next time
Happy quilting – really happy quilting

Not 15 minutes of fame———4 days at the Best quilt show in Aust and at least a years worth of bragging rights———and think of the fame you will get from your next David Bowie! Congratulations and we will fight through your adoring fans to see the quilt in all it’s glory in Melb. Faith >
Thanks very much Faith. Not sure that you’ll have to fight too hard – well apart from Mum and Dad of course!!
Well done, always knew you were a star. What an achievement, wait until they see David Bowie, that will blow them away.
Congratulations, well done, we ( the Wednesday group) are very proud of you.

Hi Kaye, I am a quilter from regional Victoria and I have just returned home from AQC in Melbourne where I was lucky enough to see your wonderful quilt “My Top 40”. I stood for ages alongside many women of varying ages as we all tried to work out which musicians were included in your top 40. There was agreement and disagreement amongst us but it was fantastic to see so many women having a conversation about the contents of your quilt. As a child of the 60s, 70s and 80s and an avid music fan I am intrigued by some of the stars I couldn’t name. Is there any chance you could provide me with a list of who’s who so I can put my inquiring mind to rest?
I met a lady who does lessons at your shop and she told me of your Bowie quilt. I hope to see that sometime soon.
Anyway congratulations on your work so far and thank you for showing what was the highlight of my visit to AQC this year.

Thank you so much Heather for your kind words. You made me promise to comment when I find a project I like because it makes the artist feel very good! I would love to see you at Apatchy some time and I will send you the list of who’s who.
