My quilting idol

Yesterday at my quilt guild meeting I had the opportunity to meet a quilting goddess, Sharon Schamber. She was amazingly funny. I really enjoyed myself and seeing her quilts in person brought tears to my eyes. She even let us touch them. Breathtaking. I just don't have the words to describe how awesome it was. I can only hope to be a fraction as awesome as she is at some point in my career. Sharon recently won the $100,00 quilt challenge with her gorgeous quilt Scarlet Serenade. She has won countless quilting honors and shows. I can tell from just hearing her speak that she is a very happy and fulfilled woman.
