Terry’s Thoughtful Thursday - May 31 2007

Terry's Thoughtful Thursday
ReAlLy RaNdOm ThOuGhTs

     Today’s article is going to be short and sweet, as I am swamped with work, it’s late, and I’m tired. So, my apologies upfront!
     Here are my thoughts for today (well, the ones I can think of at almost 1 am):

  • I am pleased as pumpkin pie with the responses to the Fat Quarter Drawing and the Block Party on Quilting Passion. I would also like to take this moment to remind everyone that you do not have to be a forum member to “play” in either one of these!
  • Quilting Passion members donated at least six (6) quilts to Project Comforting Virginia. We have not received word directly from Virginia Tech that they were received, however, each quilt was sent via the USPS with Delivery Confirmation and the DC confirms they arrived at their destination.
  • The Australian Publication of Queensland Quilters Inc. magazine, “Material Facts”, published an article written by me in the June edition! The article is entitled, “What Size Is That?” and defines quilt sizes. This article is a reprint of the original article that I wrote a few years ago, that has been updated. A complimentary edition of this magazine was mailed to me and is shown to the right (click on the image to enlarge it).
  • Plan on an interesting Challenge kicking off in the month of June. Details of this will be given on Friday, June 1st!
  • Also, plan on a voted “Hall of Fame” debuting, using both Quilting By Design and Quilting Passion. This, too, is slated for the month of June and details will be published on or about the 5th of June!
  • Another project will be announced next week, probably on the 8th of June. This is a special project that honors the memory of a spectacular lady who was a member of the forum. Details will be published later.
  • Watch this site in the month of June! There are going to be reviews and interviews with some of your favorite quilting celebrities, such as: Marcia Hohn, Pati Shambaugh, Jodie Davis, and more! Plans are also in the works to set up some live chat sessions with as many of these talented quilters as possible.
  •      
         June is going to be an extremely busy month for me, but I hope to provide you with enough quilting information to capture your interest and inspire you!
         I appreciate all of you that frequent the site and hope you continue to do so. Please feel free to leave your comments!

      Wow, you have been busy planning and scheming, haven’t you? Sounds like a lot of fun, I can’t wait to see what you have in store for all of us. :)

    3. Terry Crawford Says:

      Yes, I have been busy!!!! But not until this week, though. I was inspired this week, for some reason! I am anxious to kick a few things off… the first is tomorrow. Woo hoo!
