"Soul Sisters" is all about the friendship of two women who enjoy a 'coffee break' from time to time via e-mail. There is nothing like good friends to pour your heart out to. I am celebrating my good friend, and teaching partner, co-curator, foodie, and maven of joy and laughter - Leslie Tucker Jenison! Here's to women friends!

ReplyDeleteI was there when they announced the awards. They broadcast the event with an Ipad, presumably on the Alliance website. Anyway, the guy from the HandiQuilter company (maybe the CEO) said that he might negotiate a trade-in for last year's machine, since you get your pick of any machine in the line. Your work is wonderful in spirit and vitality and color and all the things that bring joy! Continued success!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Jamie. It is a great piece - there is nothing better than an awesome girlfriend. I see you will also have a piece at the Sacred Threads exhibit. I will too - for the first time.
ReplyDeleteKeep on making your wonderful art.
Yay! Congratulations, Jamie. It is a well deserved award
