Welcome to the Show

The opening on Friday was a wonderful night for me and I'm happy to be able to share it with all of you.
Have a glass of wine, or maybe some sparkling water. Please sign the virtual guest book (leave a comment). I'd sure like to know you came by.
Enjoy!











This is a sampling of the work in the show. While I was busy greeting and chatting about the quilts my hubby was taking pictures. Bless his heart, he did his best with tricky lighting and folks moving around. Of the almost 200 pictures he took, these are the best ones.
People came and they enjoyed my work. They had lots of questions. One of the best parts of the night was answering their questions and talking quilts, talking art.


This is not a white glove exhibit. Becky, my local blog friend's daughter Grace had the right idea. Get close, touch them, and always check out what's on the back.
Another great part of the night, I sold 8 pieces, two of the larger pieces and 6 small pieces. I was thrilled, both for me, but for the clinic as well since 25% of the sales go directly to support the clinic.

Thanks to Becky and Sarah, both local blog friends who came to the show and brought their children. The kids made the night for me. They're so candid with their comments and their enthusiasm is contagious. I so appreciate the support.

I learned so much from the experience, and I have ideas for how to make the August and September nights even better. I'm hoping for a much bigger crowd for August since it won't be a holiday weekend. Next big night, August 7th from 5:30 to 7:30.

I think I might have made a contact from another gallery. Maybe this won't be a one time thing. I have so much sewing to do to replace those items that sold. Busy is good. I think Tallgrass Prairie Studio is now official.

Thanks for coming and sharing this night with me.

I absolutely adore the quilting on the black, white & gray quilt--the one that reminds me of a gallery wall with framed photos in it. The quilting is just AWESOME.

Unbelievable! It looks amazing. I'm going to send a link to my non-blogging friends to share the quilts with them as well. I really wish I could have just picked up and gone to Kansas (?) Missouri (?) - I forget which - to see you and the show.

I'm so glad your show was a success! All of those quilts hanging there in one place makes a big impact, especially since I recognized so many of them. Thanks for sharing this. I only wish I could have seen it in person.

Truly works of art.

Lisa said...

Woo hoo!! Awesome job on the sales! Thank you for posting pictures! I loved the virtual "tour". Your show is beautiful.

I think it's cool that you let people touch the quilts. Fabric is such a tactile experience- whether sewn or not. I have a terrible time keeping my hands in my pockets at quilt exhibitions.

This is so fantastic, Jacquie. It looks absolutely wonderful (tell your husband the photos are great!) and I so wish I could have seen and touched everything in person.

John said...

Wow. Just ... wow. I am in awe! It was so much fun seeing all of the old favorites from your blog back in the forefront. I feel like yours was one of the first few blogs that I really started following when I first began sewing and quilting, so I kind of "grew up" with your work! It was great to see them all, almost as a retrospective. I cannot wait to see what's next for Tallgrass Prairie Studio!!

Autumn said...

Darci said...

Way to go!!! They are all gorgeous.

Alissa said...

Wow Jacquie! WOW! It must have been so amazing to see all of your quilts in one place like this! Your "voice" is so clear and amazing. Congrats on the opening, congrats on the sales and congrats on feeling like Tallgrass Prairie Studios is legit! It certainly was before this but this is another step... Again congrats. Wish I could hop on a plane and be there next month...

Victoria said...

I am so happy for you, Jacquie! What a thrill to see all of your beautiful quilts and hard work together, for others to see, touch, learn from, be inspired by, and enjoy! Huge congratulations for your well earned success!

Lynn said...

Thank you for post about your show. We've been following along since the evolution of the show and it was a treat to be there virtually. Really the quilts are works of art - so clever and creative. Each truly your own piece. Your blog and some others have prompted so many of us to break free of the traditional patterns and make our quilts into our own works of art too. Thanks!

Doris said...

Looks wonderful, Jacquie. I knew you wouln't be playing to an empty house...

Still hoping to make it in August or September.

Congrats!

Amanda M. said...

SO MANY BEAUTIFUL QUILTS! I love the houses around the sun, and the colors you chose for the whirly-gig kind of one. You are one talented woman! Congrats on the show, and good luck with upcoming ones. Love the inspiring posts! :)

Michaela said...

They're all incredible! Congratulations on the show!!

Luckily I have a very nice husband. Yours seems pretty understanding to take all those pictures for you.

Krista said...

Way to go! How fabulous that you sold so much of your work, so you can buy more fabric to create more amazing work and also support the clinic. Truly a win-win. It must feel so wonderful to know others appreciate your creations and want to bring them home. I know it's hard with such large quilts, but I would love to see photos taken straight on while they are hanging vertically....

MightyMom said...
