If you have the button and it’s no longer working, will you try replacing the code you have with this code?

New Or Old?

Now that you’ve all had some time to get used to the new blog, which one do you like better . . the new one or the old one?  If you can’t remember the old one . . then let’s assume you like the new one better.

If you have a definite reason for voting one way or the other, please explain it to me.  You won’t hurt my feelings . . I didn’t create the blog.  But, I do want to know what you think.

Design Wall Monday – August 30, 2010

This photo was taken with my cell phone.  Don’t ask me why . . my real camera is sitting right here.  This is as far as I’ve gotten with the quilt.  I think I’ll add one more vertical row and one more horizontal row, borders and then it will be big enough to be a nice size snuggle quilt.

What’s on your design wall?

Teaching Schedule

Several have asked if I have workshops scheduled in their areas.

After a very busy 2009,  and with an already full schedule for 2010, last year Vince and I discussed my teaching away from home and pretty much decided I would schedule very little in 2011 and nothing thereafter for several reasons.

I enjoy teaching and meeting quilters and spending time with you all but at the end of the day, home is where I love to be.  I’m not saying I won’t schedule a workshop here and there but for the most part, the traveling and teaching for me is over.  Not only do I love being home, but Vince likes having me home and you know how much Speck likes having me home!   Traveling is really a hassle.  Maybe it’s because I’ve let it become a hassle.  To fly, I have to drive over 2 hours to the Kansas City airport, park off site and ride the bus, with all my quilts in tow, to get to the airport.  If I drive, there’s the constant worry that I’ll come to a bridge I can’t cross so . . the bottom line is . . I’m happier at home.

I so much appreciate those who have recommended me to your guild and who are still asking me to come to your area.  I may change my mind if we end up closer to an airport and without chickens so Vince doesn’t have to deal with them.

For now . . that’s how it is!  :)
