OMG ...

 ... this morning I was going to tell you that it is now time to vote for your favourite nominees in the various categories of SewCalGal's Golden Quilter Awards.  There are various categories, including Best Designer, Best Teacher, etc. and you can vote for one person in each category.  You can read all the nominees, etc, here, and just by voting in one or more categories, you might win one of the fabulous prizes that are on offer.

Well, that's what I was going to write about, until I saw that I had an email from SewCalGal in my inbox with the title
"Congratulations - you are a nominee for the 2012 Golden Quilter Awards, Best Author"
Oh boy, to say I was gobsmacked would be a major understatement. This was a complete surprise, and I have no idea who nominated me, but thank you so much.  I am in such illustrious company as Carrie Nelson, Eleanor Burns, Jinny Beyer, etc.  I can hardly believe it and I am floating around on cloud nine now. Now I know just how the actors feel when they are nominated for a film Oscar.

    I've nipped across to SewCalGirl's to have a look at the categories, but I will have to go back and settle down with a cup of coffee to have a proper look!
