I spent the last half of March on a boat in the middle of the Pacific Ocean in pursuit of improved quilting skills. One of my major motivators for this trip was the opportunity to take two classes from Judith Baker-Montano. I have heard my aunt rave about her for years and marveled at her crazy quilting and landscape works. She truly is an artist and now I can say from experience that she is also a great teacher, a woman with a great sense of humor, and a real person. While I think that two weeks is a bit long to be on a boat and I'm glad I had my thesis to work on when I wasn't quilting, I feel lucky to have been around some really fantastic people and hope to continue to share the journey with a few of them....even if they do live in Florida! I'll post some more pics from projects on the cruise when we get a non-sunny day around here.
