Creatively Amused

Donald Preston Coates 3-26-1935 - 3-26-2007 Daddy was very orderly, he lived exactly 72 years, to the day. He died very suddenly, in his sleep, after having the flu for a week. He was a wonderful Dad and I will miss him so much.

Fauna Makes the Cover of Quilting Arts! Here is what Pokey had to say about it on her blog: "Here's a sneak peak of our next cover of Quilting Arts. (I just got my advanced copy yesterday). This is a detail of “Fauna”, a collaborative quilt by Kathy York, Vicki Hallmark, Frances Holliday Alford, Judy Coates Perez, and Julie John Upshaw. Never before in the history of Quilting Arts Magazine have we dedicated eight entire pages to a single quilt, but it's that amazing. (I still have this quilt in my possession as we'll be featuring it in our Quilting Arts booth in Chicago .) Subscribers, this issue is being mailed as we speak, and for those who pick up Quilting Arts on the newsstands, expect to see it April 3rd." Judy says: The seahorse is from Kathy York 's panel of Fauna. Congrats on making the cover girl! I am so thrilled that Fauna is making its public debut on the pages of Quilting Art...
