American Heritage Quilt Show

The Wheeling Artisan Center, Wheeling, WV will house their 9th Annual Heritage Quilt Show
February 4-12. The theme of the show is Sampler Quilts. The quilts will be judged by National Quilt Association certified judge, Linda McCuean of New Galilee, PA. New quilters are encouraged to enter! Hmmm!

Well, folks, in for a penny, in for a pound! With some encouragement from Leslie McGlumphy at Whg.Q&E, I'm seriously thinking about entering. It's a small show, and I am a new quilter...Plus I just might be able to get my 'Windows of the Heart' piece done by Wednesday at 6 p.m. Well, I'll just have to see...I suppose I should enter and hang a couple of pieces and then think if I want them judged. They don't necessarily have to be judged.

What do ya think?
