"Alive In The Arts"

 Misty Morning

The Riverfront

These two quilts have been accepted in "Gallery 110 North" Annual Art Show
"Alive In The Arts"

I am so excited and it proves perseverance wins out.
This is the 4th year that I have entered this show which is not a quilt show but an art show.
Actually it is the  5th year because the very first year when I entered they rejected my application because it was a fiber piece.  Yes ...true.  However, they have become enlightened!  haha.
So I entered the next year and this time they took my entry but rejected it in judging.
Same thing happened the following two years.
So this year I was going to enter "The Riverfront" and thought, maybe I will enter two to get a better chance at maybe ONE being accepted in by the judge.
Today the envelope came and low and behold both were accepted!
I am on cloud nine to have finally reached this goal of mine....in twos!!!!

So if you are working on some goal...persevere because it will happen and you will feel the JOY!
