I love doing programs too and don't feel as though I'm tooting my horn, but rather sharing with others the stuff I love to do. Some folks seem reluctant to enjoy the limelight, says it makes them nervous, but if they do as you do and let the quilts or the project do the program and the person standing in front of the crowd be the narrator, then it would be a breeze for them. I'll have to remember this.

I've never thought of myself...What a fun post. I've never thought of myself as an actor when giving a quilt presentation....it's just something I do, you know? Now that I think of it, I suppose it IS tooting my horn, but it certainly doesn't feel that way. I guess the difference is getting asked rather than just jumping into a conversation and really tooting! When friends ask me how I can give a trunk show or explain how I do a certain technique, I laugh and remind them that the quilts all have a story: I just happen to be the one who knows it. I keep telling them it's the same with their quilts--tell the quilt story. Now I suppose I can say the quilt is the lead actor, I'm just the supporting actor/narrator who knows the story! Goodness, you've gotten my philosophical wave kicking.Mary Marcottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14569619947909529203noreply@blogger.com
