Sophie and I had a fast but fun visit to Quilting Arts TV studios earlier this
week. On the way back the United computers and website went down for a couple
hours, so we had a delay at the airport. Then we had another delay when our
plane suddenly swerved away from the Denver airport and had to land in Cheyenne
Wyoming! Sophie thought it was cool to be in 3 states all in one day. That's
what I call positive thinking!
Anyway we filmed 2 segments that will show
up on QA TV's Series 1100 later this year. This week we received the DVDs for QA
TV's 1000 series, which has 2 segments with the two of us. You can also see our
Series 1000 segment clips on our video page.
Tonight we are uploading the first 2 videos from the Festival
of Quilts in Birmingham. One is a review of the eQuilter-sponsored Pictorial
Quilts exhibit, which was one of the most popular sections of the show! The
other is an amazing quilt artist – Kate Findlay – whose glimmering metallic
mandala quilts are inspired by the Hadron Collider in
Cern, Switzerland. Have a look on our video
page!
Just in case you missed them – Sophie's FOUR "Kids Eye Review"
videos from the Long Beach Quilt Festival are also up on our video
page.
I am using this long holiday weekend to try to purge the extra
"stuff" from my house and studio. Now that our kids are getting older I keep
hoping we can get rid of more kid stuff, but Mason passed on his stuff to Sam,
and Sam passed on his stuff to Sophie, and I am trying to convince Sophie to let
go of more stuff for the young cousins. Sound familiar? I've been passing on my
magazines to schools and organizations like YWCA, where I know they'll be
appreciated. It is hard to strike a balance between purging, and placing
appropriately.
Anyway, while everyone else is out on the roads this
holiday weekend, I'll be at home!
How about you?
