Quilter's Ego Trip


Well, I did not have to travel far for this Trip--only about 30 miles East to Monroe.  I had been asked to give a little talk at two meetings of the Monroe Quilt Guild.  My kind of day.  First, there is a captive audience.  Secondly, we are discussing Quilts.  Thirdly, we are focused on ME, heh heh,.  Finally, they pay me to be there.  How perfect is this set-up? 

I do not know about the delightful gals who were there, but, I had a terrific time.  I was asked to speak for around 30 minutes.  I should have warned them about my "time frame."  It is very similar to my "departure schedules," flexible, very very flexible.  In spite of this, both groups were just as attentive as they could be, laughing at the right times, asking great questions, and no one fell asleep, well, at least no one was snoring.  Thanks, ladies for making my day beauutiful.

By the way, I am officially on the List to walk in the 60 mile Walk for a Cure.  This time I will be walking in Washington, D.C.  I am going to need some serious help raising the $2300 since we are no longer allowed to sit in front of Wal-Mart.  Please bear with me and please ask everyone you know for big bucks. I will include the link:       Click here to help Dianne Walk for the Cure

  1. My mother has told me how great your presentation was at the North Louisiana Quilters Guild! I wish I lived closer and would have been able to come. They are a wonderful group of ladies!

    1. Thank you so much for the comments but also for taking the time to write them. Perhaps, if I am invited back someday, you can come, too.

  2. Dianne, we thoroughly enjoyed your presentation at our Guild meeting last Thursday. I have managed to cover the bottom of a folding chair and make a mouse pad. So fun working with bright fabrics. P.S. I am Scrappy Girl's Mother.

    1. Fabulous! If you get a chance, I would love pictures. As soon as I figure out how to transfer those images to this blog, I would love to show them off. Thanks for being so terrific and for having me.
