My friend Lyric, 2011 Quilting Teacher of the Year

I just found out that my good friend Lyric Kinard was recently named 2011 Teacher of the Year by the International Association of Professional Quilters!  What a great honor!

And to think I knew her when.  She and I were in a quilt bee together for about ten years, from the time she was a complete beginner until she was already winning national quilting awards.

She is very talented, you should check out her website:
