Who Are You?

On the first day of Expo -- in one of those accidental meetings that happens all the time -- I had a nice visit with this woman...note the front of the jacket she's wearing...

As I recall, she was meeting a friend -- and had a bag of sewing projects to share...

I was completely BLOWN AWAY by the caliber of her sewing -- which was phenomenal...

I believe she was attending a musical event on Sunday -- which was the reason she made this awesome jacket:

AND, YES -- this is the BACK of the jacket she was wearing when I first bumped into her. (before I insisted she TRY EVERYTHING ON SO I COULD TAKE PICTURES)...

And, finally -- my personal favorite -- THE PEACOCK JACKET. Oh My Goodness.
I wanted to honor your effort, your designs, your embroidery skills. But I didn't know your name. And I swtarted thinking about how many women with incredible sewing skills come to Expo -- and we never really find out who they are, either. It's no surprise that I lost your name -- the real surprise is that I managed to keep track of THESE GREAT PICTURES.

I apologize for not knowing your name -- but, on this day, I am using your projects to honor EVERY WOMAN WHO COMES TO EXPO to learn more about this hobby we all love...

You are all awesome...
