You know, I'm fairly used to being rejected. My chosen career (theatre) and my chosen hobby (crafting) are both full of rejection. It's just part of the biz and normally I just let it roll off my back. But, I have to admit to being very, very sad about a rejection I received yesterday. I made this quilt:
(here's a close up detail…)
for The Journal Quilt Project, which was juried this year. I really love the quilt, so I'm feeling sad about being rejected. Ah, well. The good news is that it means I can post it here on my blog! So, that's at least something! And I'm happy to have it hanging around the house, so there's another good thing!
Sigh.
In brighter, happier news, here is today's Sultane layout!
This one uses both the Art Quarelle collection (the blue paper) and the Nos Unis Luxe (red/orange vellum) collection.
I love that quilt! It’s their loss really, not yours.

Sorry for the quilt rejection Julie, but you do get to keep it and I’m so glad that you got to show us the beautiful design! I can’t wait to see your PBS spots (keep us posted on any dates and times that you will be on). More doodling for all of us…thanks for sharing your craft!

Rejection sucks, doesn’t it! But it is their loss because your quilt is a piece of artwork!
