I entered a contest.
An essay contest.
An essay contest by MARY FONS.
TO WIN MARY FONS PATCHWORK!!!!!!
I made a (apparently fleeting) promise to myself I would not abuse capitalization or exclamation marks on this blog to help prevent people from being annoyed by me. Oops. I'm sorry but they are necessary in this context!
Instead of hemming and hawing and potentially chickening out or second guessing, I wrote the essay yesterday and sent it today. I went with my gut. I was acting like I wasn't nervous when I sealed and stamped the essay yesterday. But then I got up to the mailbox to send this sucker and I froze a little bit. I almost didn't plop it in that slot there, guys.

Mary is my quilting hero. I sent something very personal and very real and very me to my quilting hero who would definitely open it and look at it and read it.
Let's not dwell on that. Fake it until I make it? Yes, I will!
Here are some tulips sitting pretty on my table to celebrate. Happy First Day of Spring!
