A VERY HAPPY ENDING to the saga of the missing garment. I'm excited to report that the missing garment 'Chocolate' mysteriously showed up at my door. It seems intact, no missing or broken part. I'm just happy that I can keep showing the actual piece to my audience in the future shows, not just a picture. THANK YOU SO MUCH, everyone, for looking out for it AND for sending me numerous words of sympathy and encouragement!

Dorothy from California working on three dimensional texture techniques during my 'Fifth Dimension' workshop at PIQF. Thank you for attending my three workshops, everybody!

I was the head judge for the wearable art contest at the 18th Pacific International Quilt Festival between the 13th and the 17th of October in Santa Clara, CA. It was a feast to my eyes seeing all those gorgeous garments. Keep entering, ladies!

Taping of The Quilt Show in Boulder, CO

I taped my episode for The Quilt Show with Alex Anderson and Ricky Timms in Boulder, CO in September. It was a lot of fun. My episode will be available for viewing in season 6. Enjoy!

I'm going to teach at Empty Spools Seminars 2010 at Asilomar

I was in Charlotte, NC this past week. I had a wonderful time and felt very much at home there. Even though traveling across the country was long, it was worth the trip! Thank you very much, ladies, for your hospitality!!

Sad News: One of my most prized wearable art ensemble was stolen

One of my most prized wearable art piece "Chocolate" was stolen during my recent visit to Boulder, CO. I had a taping session of "The Quilt Show with Alex Anderson and Ricky Timms" on Sep 13 and the ensemble was taken from my suitcase right before the taping... It won two Best of Show awards and a Viewer's Choice. If anyone out there sight the garment (you can see the photo at http://www.ramikim.com/gallery.html under "Life is like a box of chocolate" at the bottom row), please let me know either by e-mail kimrami@hotmail.com or by calling me at (916) 600-5735.
