Luana Rubin from Equilter.com, the wonderful online fabric site, did a series of Videos on the Houston Quilt Show.  I was thrilled to find that my two leaf quilts were included in her Video on Art Quilts from the show.

My Quilts at the IQA Show in Houston

Cyndi Slothower took this photo of my quilts at the IQA Show in Houston this year.  She was attending the Trade Show before the main show which begins Wednesday.  I have tickets for a flight there tomorrow and have my fingers crossed that it won't be cancelled.
