My Dream Comes True

April 3, 2017 Filed Under: Media, Quilts 2 Comments

Today is the day when my wildest dream came true. Many years ago I bought the first edition of The Encyclopedia of Quilting and Patchwork Techniques by Katherine Guerrier, published by Quarto Publishing in 1994. Living in a place where quilting was almost unknown this book was like a spring of fresh water. Finally I was able to  ease my thirst!

Seeing my own creation in this book was one thing I couldn’t even think of . Never!

Today in a mail I received the second edition of the same book, revised and updated:

Look at this beauty:

And in a gallery section there is a photo of my quilt Crocuses in the Snow:

When I bought the first book I couldn’t even imagine this happening.

    Congratulations, Maryte! I can only imagine what a thrill this is for you! But, I must say, I am not surprised. Your dedication to your art shows in everything you do. So happy for you!
