But your re-working the rug mats is a DELIGHTful sewing teaching piece to me, and thanks for all the other parts too - ALL useful, even if out of my response time for today.THANKS!

So I wouldn't worry about it. Hi Daryl,

I specifically asked HGA whether blogs counted (because I’m blogging my wedding-dress project), and they said “no”. So I wouldn’t worry about it.

It enables me to see, appreciate, and learn a lot from you. I would never be able to make it to Albuquerque to see the Convergence exhibition... and maybe that is the reason why HGA doesn't want things which have previously been published -- perhaps their drawing card is to be able to offer things that people can't see somewhere else. But really, I'm of the opinion that those times are past. Information via internet about projects as they are being produced is so much more helpful than simply seeing the finished object in an exhibit. The person-to-person contacts are what Convergence has to offer, and that is what they could/should be promoting. The exhibits can be used as illustrations, as conversation pieces, but it's the encounters, and the new ideas and directions born from these encounters, that are important. I hope HGA reviews and revises their policies, and allows you to be there at Convergence along with your yardage (which others have already seen on internet) and that the subsequent encounters and conversations are inspiring to all.
