We Are Quilters Hear Us Sew!!!

Sorry Helen Reddy for stilling the lyrics to your song “I Am Women”, but to all my quilting friends this title describes us to a “T” or is that to a “Q”?

We are quilters hear us sew

Our numbers too big to ignore

And we know too much to go back an’ pretend.

We’ve been down there on the floor

Basting quilts and even more

No one’s ever gonna stop us from doing more.

Oh yes I am wise

But its wisdom born of learning

Yes, I’ve paid

For fabrics and much more

But look what I’ve made, a quilt that looks so great

If I have to spend, let me spend it on more fabric

I am strong

I am invincible

I am Quilter

Ok, Ok, I should not quit my day job, but when I’m left with my thoughts anything could come to mind.

I have finished my quilt for the exhibit next month.  I will not show you my finish quilt, but you already saw the work in progress.   You will have to come to the exhibit to see it.  The exhibit “Red And White, Too”, an exhibit inspired by Joanna S. Rose’s Red and White Exhibit in New York last year, and being presented by Ms. Carolyn Burgess (Scrapbag).  Ms. Scrapbag has collect quilts form local D.C., Virginia, and Maryland (and maybe even further out of town) quilters to show our own red and white quilts.  The exhibit will be held at Art Enables – located at 2204 Rhode Island Avenue, N.E. in DC.  It will run from February 6-24, 2012.  So if you can please stop pass and support your local quilters.
