Reality Surpassing the Dream

The Universe is trying to tell me something. Lately I keep running into the phrase “Dream Big”. This morning reality hit me with something that got me thinking that perhaps my “big dreams” are not big enough.

One of my emails this morning mentioned that Bonnie McCaffery had posted a new Vidcast with scenes from the International Quilt Festival in Houston. So I dutifully surfed on over to check it out. In the Vidcast she does an interview with Karey Bresenhan about the new book “Creative Quilting: The Journal Quilt Project”, and they show some of the 2006 Journal Quilts. Imagine my surprise when one of they artists that Bonnie showcases has my name!!!! Oh, wait a minute, those quilts ARE mine!

Here is my view for July. This one is called “Wimbledon”.
