It contains two of my contributions: an article I wrote called "An Inclination for Triangles," and the Triangle challenge quilt I made that was selected to appear in the Gallery section of the magazine.
What a surprise to see my name on the cover! Goodness! That's never happened before.
For the contributors page, it looks like they lifted my headshot from my Google account.
My article begins on page 26. I like how the text was formatted into a triangular shape.
Pages 28-29. I collected all the quilt photos to accompany the article, and want to thank everyone who signed a permission-to-use form so their quilt could be included.
And pages 30-31. As you can see on the left-hand pages, the quilt pictures were cropped into triangles too.
I'm happy to see my friend Paige's (QuiltedBlooms) mini, "Research Triangle," opposite mine.
"Always Add Orange," 15" X 15" |
"Splices," 14-12/" X 14-1/2" |
All in all, I'm pretty happy about everything that happened this past week.
The icing on the cake is that since May 21, when I went off Arimidex (breast cancer drug) hot flashes are slowly declining. Lately I've had only one or two a day, and they're much less intense than they once were. Whoopee! And, I've lost ten pounds, though that's been all about commitment and determination to lose it. It sure feels great. Clothes-wise, I feel like I'm back into a "new" wardrobe!
Life is good. God is good! Linda
Wonderful. I love seeing the issue of CQ thru your eyes. ;-)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on all your wonderful achievements over the last week or so, Linda. You deserve all the acclamation! Hugs, Val
ReplyDeleteCan’t wait to read this issue, especially your article. Hopefully, it will be in Monday’s mail.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! That’s wonderful news!! The layout looks realllly nice 😀
ReplyDeleteI’m shocked that Splices was not accepted; what a travesty! I still love it to pieces😉
I can't wait to sit down and read your triangle article! It's so interesting to see all the creative interpretations of the given theme in the mini challenges. And, that is so fun that we are side by side! 10 pounds, wow, I didn't think you needed to lose any!
ReplyDeleteCongrats all around Linda! Well done. You've certainly accomplished a lot just lately, but then again, you are always so productive. Look forward to seeing what comes next from you. It's always inspiring.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! It is always like a sweet reward to see publication of quilts, and you've earned it. I love that you also wrote an article, and how fun to see it in that triangle shape! Your quilt is terrific--woohoo!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations again Linda on your magazine publication! You certainly should be proud of the article and the mini "Always Add Orange" quilt! Three cheers from down under!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your article. Very exciting!
ReplyDeleteThat's so exciting. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteOh you clever girl Linda. Congratulations what a wonderful achievement. I just wish I could get your magazine here, but to have it sent would probably cost around $50 NZ. postage makes it prohibitive. Ill have to see if any shops in NZ sell it.
