(Especially from those down under). :)<br /><br />I'm pretty sure I'll never get to the "Brilliant Grand Master Quilter" either, but hey - that's ok. I'm happy doing what I do and have learned to be content with the talent the Master Creator has given me. Plus, I really like inspiring others and sharing what I do... that seems to be my main joy. <br /><br />We are entering the season of LOTS of quilt shows here in the states, as the snow is finally melting and winter is winding down. Hubby and I will be combining camping with visiting some shows and I'll try to remember to post pics of the various shows. When our family was young and the kids were at home, we were pretty broke so I didn't get to shows, and didn't enter very many either. Now we are in a better place, at least a bit, lol, 2 kids in college with high tuition costs, but anyway we can go more places. (I think I better put a "RUN ON SENTENCE" alert for that last one.<br /><br />I need more coffee. Take care and best wishes Julie! Thanks for writing. :)<br />Material Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10207955801104019255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936994744919625087.post-69196302706785663512015-03-08T07:35:54.903-07:002015-03-08T07:35:54.903-07:00Hello from a land down under Cathy,
Thank you so ...Hello from a land down under Cathy,<br /><br />Thank you so very much from a mad quilter from Adelaide South Australia. Cathy I would never have the opportunity to visit the USA due to medical reasons. Flying is bad for my health. Getting your blog and being permitted to see Caryl's work is a real blessing. I love it too and wish my processes in the quilting world were not taking so long because I'm still at the basic stage in fact I probably won't ever attain to Caryls status as "Brilliant Grand Master Quilter"! But I guess it's a process that one has to travel through. Some of Caryl's quilts just melt my heart and I too love the movement in them. Her geese quilt Wings on a dream is my all time favorite. I am truly blessed thank you for sharing those photo's with me and the many others. Happy quilting Julie Beard. julie714@adam.com.auAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936994744919625087.post-89850793390048326452015-03-07T06:13:31.931-08:002015-03-07T06:13:31.931-08:00I'm glad you enjoyed the show!

I can't just 'turn it on' though and have inspiration come to me, I have to think and think and sketch and think. And look at pictures and think some more... I have a feeling that Caryl and others of her quality can just 'turn on' their creativity and just do it. It was a joy to see those quilts of hers. <br />Material Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10207955801104019255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936994744919625087.post-75734097585838921292015-03-07T00:47:13.406-08:002015-03-07T00:47:13.406-08:00Thanks for the pictures!Thanks for the pictures!Elenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17342309428531067659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936994744919625087.post-13496637903821160672015-03-06T17:07:56.580-08:002015-03-06T17:07:56.580-08:00Caryl Bryer is a very talented quilter.

I purchased the pattern for the High Tech Tucks quilt and made 2 of them, which came out very nice. I have also tried her illusion design and it is my favorite of all my quilts. I wish I had half the imagination of you and Caryl to create my own designs.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07535676025960423830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7936994744919625087.post-27709518251140817212015-03-06T13:53:58.578-08:002015-03-06T13:53:58.578-08:00Such fabulous quilts that span decades!
