ATCs from Cloth Paper Scissors swap

A while ago I sent off some Artist Trading Cards for a swap sponsored by the Cloth Paper Scissors magazine. It was to be held at the Chicago International Quilt Festival. You had to go in person to swap but since one of my best internet friends, Heather, went to the show she was allowed to proxy for me. Okay, now this next bit is kind of terrible ....

Heather said she wasn't allowed to pick out the cards we were given - they were just picked in order from the ones posted on the wall. She said the ones we were given weren't comparable in quality to what we sent in. Then she noticed someone walking about with a basket saying 'Trade with the Editor"... so she traded in all 8 of our cards. I received four that were made by Patricia (Pokey) Bolton, editor of Quilting Arts and Cloth Paper Scissors, and another from Deborah - who also works at the magazine. The one from Deborah has the big pink heart - the other are from Pokey. They are all awesome - they utilitize cloth, paper, stamping, paint, all techniques taught in their magazines. I uploaded a huge photo so you can see the details - but you have to click on this picture to get to it ...
