Today's milestone project is my Rah Rah Rally Quilt. This was my first quilt to be published in a book. Oh my goodness, what a thrill this was :) I still can't believe it is real sometimes. This was such an amazing opportunity to be part of, from the creation, to the market schoolhouse and book signing, to just seeing my quilt in a book. I never, ever, ever, thought my blog would lead me to opportunities like this but I am so incredibly grateful for it. And now I just get giddy thinking what milestones might be next :)
