As I've been struggling with jetlag, living 14 hours ahead of my husband, and constantly asking myself "What time is it, really?" I have had the "why do I do this to myself?" thought more than once. And then the quilt show starts and I remember why I volunteer for this abuse again and again and again.
I was at the quilt show early this morning. Heck, I've been awake for hours, so why not? The behind-the-scenes folks had everything ready to ensure that the students have a top-notch experience. Morning tea service:
This lovely, lovely building and the quilts and vendors on the main level:
My students who remind me why I spend 50 hours on an airplane to be here:
If you can't read the writing on the tool box, it says "Touch my tools and die."
Creative, talented, generous, kind, fun students who are passionate about their quilting:
A huge thank you to the Handi Quilter folks who worked so hard to get this classroom set up for the week:
Enlarge the photo to get a close-up of her quilting. I'm totally stealing her design.
Fun touches in my hotel room, like "cold and cold running water":
I am looking forward to my Friday class where we will rock the ribbon candy designs in class... all day long!
(Full disclosure, I am writing this at 3 am, because I am WIDE. AWAKE. Jetlag is something special.)
