Click here to listen to episode #12

So, what the heck happened to me?  I’m still alive and kicking.  Thanks so much to the concerned listeners who checked in on me!!!  Life just got in the way a bit there.  I’ve still got plenty to talk about in my head, though, so I’ll be delivering up some new shows soon.  Thanks for your patience :)

Episode 11 – Trends

Sorry, I don’t have much to say in the roundup today.  I did put up some pictures of the NQA show in the previous posting.  I hope you enjoy them!

Episode #9 – chit chat and guest appearance

Episode #9 – chit chat and a guest appearance 

I took a break from the frugal quilting series because I wanted to release something.  We’ve been super busy trying to get our house ready to put up for sale.  I know – it’s not a great time to sell but our circumstances don’t care about the timing!  The Husband makes a (surprise) guest appearance.  

I mentioned 4 books in this episode:

  • The Civil War Love Letter Quilt by Rosemary Youngs
  • The Quilter’s Catalog – a comprehensive resource guide by Meg Cox
  • Material Obsession – Modern quilts with traditional roots by Kathy Doughty and Sarah Fielke
  • American Quilts and Coverlets in the Metropolitan Museum of Art by Amelia Peck

I finished a Round Robin round – applique!  I do have a picture of it but of course I haven’t downloaded it from the camera which is AWOL somewhere in the bowels of or house.  (update: found the camera!)

I’ll be at the NQA show June 19th.  Stop me and say hello if you go!

Episode 2 – a year of goals & NQA

Episode number 2 – goals and NQA

As mentioned in the show, I have one goal for the podcast: twenty fifteen minute episodes in 2009.  Can I do it?  We’ll see!  1 down, 19 to go.

My personal quilting goals – I have four goals for the year.  Complete a guild crayon challenge quilt, complete a guild round robin (top only), complete 6 blocks from my hand pieced project – the Sunburst blocks from the Christmas in July project of the August 2007 Quilter’s Newsletter, and complete the Moulin Rouge quilt from the book Quick Colorful Quilts for The Boy.

I am a member of NQA and I spent some time talking about the benefits of membership & the SHOW!!  I can’t wait for the show, June 18-20, 2009.  I will be attending at least one day this year.  I hope to see you there :)
