I did manage to squeek out during this year my latest work. The Minotaur, another addition to my mythology series. I am now working on Hippolyte Hunting. This is very much in its early stages.

Sorry I have been so 'absent' from the group. I was truly overwhelmed by the move. I still can't find half my stuff!

Perseus Saving Andromeda is finally starting to make the rounds. It is now at
Road to California Quilter's Conference and Showcase, where it won Best Large
Quilt. The quilt sat at home this whole past Fall, because I was not quite up to
par physically.

I have started holding classes at the Academy of Quilting.com (AOQ} I have
added instructional videos. This has been a whole new ballgame for me. I have
no one to take the video, so I have been both the cameraman and the subject. I
then edit out the raw parts so it looks OK. You can see one I did on YouTube,
either under Marilyn Belford, or Academy of Quilting. They posted it. There is
also another video called Progression of Fabric Application somewhere way down on AOQ'a Timeline, or way down on my Timeline.

I have met with Ally twice and met with Charlotte at the Lancaster AQS show last year. It was so much fun. Keep me posted and we'll see if we can make plans. Thanks again.

It is posted up above in my slideshow. It feels so good to take it down off my work wall!! However, I DID enjoy working on it, especially the dragon. He was such fun!!
