The Canadian Heart

I am excited because this is my first EVER Blog and I don't even understand how it works.

The word is interesting enough.  BLOG.  BLA.  "Bla, bla, bla"  or is it Blah, blah, blah"?

I am curious as to why Canadians living outside of the country can't enter the SAQA shows.  I find that fascinating.  I read Pam Allen's article on all of the problems she had going back and forth across the border and it made me feel so sad about the attitudes of sharing (gosh, isn't there a spell check on this thing - I am really in trouble).

I just finished having a show at the Mississippi Valley Textile Museum and I am trying to have a presence in Ontario when I can.  I have loved the artists I have met.   My Canadian heart is broken.  Did I spend too much time in the U.S. ?  There's no place like home!
