Hitting Kathy A
I hit her at exactly the right minute. Here's the story. When my Happy2Joy3
quilt top was finished, I realized that there was too much of my life invested in the top to just make a sandwich and stipple around. Some of those blocks took me three days each; three long, hard brain-frying days. It crossed my black little heart that Kathy Applebaum just might be persuaded to long-arm quilt it for me. Wonder of wonders. Whoever had booked Kathy was late getting their quilt top together and she had time for Happy2. I sent it to her with absolutely no preferences. Always glad to turn experts loose instead of limiting them by my own imagination, Kathy chose the thread and the pattern. Happy2 is wild! It is exquisite and awesome. If you think you've seen gorgeous long-arm quilting, you just ought to see Kathy's. In the future when Kathy speaks, I'm going to listen. What a magnificent quilter. Polly |

I kind of figured she would be an artist on the longarm. How wonderful that
you could bring yours and her work together for this special quilt. Is there any chance of us getting to see a picture? Diana Polly Esther wrote in message ink.net...

Doing a picture is going to be tricky, may have to offer a real photographer
the deed to the Swamp or something. I would love to be able to show you Kathy's lovely perfect stitching. Polly "Diana Curtis" wrote I kind of figured she would be an artist on the longarm.

Maybe you could offer one of the people the gators were going to snack on a
reprieve? Let them take a photo in exchange for them not turning into lawyer pate? Diana Polly Esther wrote in message ink.net...
