On the way back the United computers and website went down for a couple<br \/>\nhours, so we had a delay at the airport. Then we had another delay when our<br \/>\nplane suddenly swerved away from the Denver airport and had to land in Cheyenne<br \/>\nWyoming! Sophie thought it was cool to be in 3 states all in one day. That&#39;s<br \/>\nwhat I call positive thinking!<\/p>\n<p>Anyway we filmed 2 segments that will show<br \/>\nup on QA TV&#39;s Series 1100 later this year. This week we received the DVDs for QA<br \/>\nTV&#39;s 1000 series, which has 2 segments with the two of us. You can also see our<br \/>\nSeries 1000 segment clips on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.equilter.com\/cgi-bin\/webc.cgi\/videos.html\">video page<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Tonight we are uploading the first 2 videos from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twistedthread.com\/pages\/exhibitions\/viewExhibition.aspx?id=38\">Festival<br \/>\nof Quilts<\/a> in Birmingham. One is a review of the eQuilter-sponsored Pictorial<br \/>\nQuilts exhibit, which was one of the most popular sections of the show! The<br \/>\nother is an amazing quilt artist &#8211; Kate Findlay &#8211; whose glimmering metallic<br \/>\nmandala quilts are inspired by the <a href=\"http:\/\/public.web.cern.ch\/public\/en\/lhc\/lhc-en.html\">Hadron Collider in<br \/>\nCern, Switzerland<\/a>. Have a look on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.equilter.com\/cgi-bin\/webc.cgi\/videos.html\">video<br \/>\npage<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>Just in case you missed them &#8211; Sophie&#39;s FOUR &quot;Kids Eye Review&quot;<br \/>\nvideos from the Long Beach Quilt Festival are also up on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.equilter.com\/cgi-bin\/webc.cgi\/videos.html\">video<br \/>\npage<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I am using this long holiday weekend to try to purge the extra<br \/>\n&quot;stuff&quot; from my house and studio. Now that our kids are getting older I keep<br \/>\nhoping we can get rid of more kid stuff, but Mason passed on his stuff to Sam,<br \/>\nand Sam passed on his stuff to Sophie, and I am trying to convince Sophie to let<br \/>\ngo of more stuff for the young cousins. Sound familiar? I&#39;ve been passing on my<br \/>\nmagazines to schools and organizations like YWCA, where I know they&#39;ll be<br \/>\nappreciated. It is hard to strike a balance between purging, and placing<br \/>\nappropriately. <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, while everyone else is out on the roads this<br \/>\nholiday weekend, I&#39;ll be at home!<\/p>\n<p>How about you?<\/p>\n<strong>Share Post:<\/strong><br><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F317&#038;t=A%20Weekend%20at%20Home%21&#038;s=100&#038;p&#091;url&#093;=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F317&#038;p&#091;images&#093;&#091;0&#093;=&#038;p&#091;title&#093;=A%20Weekend%20at%20Home%21\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/facebook.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox\" data-provider=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F317&#038;text=Hey%20check%20this%20out\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twitter\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/twitter.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-pinterest nolightbox\" data-provider=\"pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Pin it with Pinterest\" href=\"https:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F317&#038;media=&#038;description=A%20Weekend%20at%20Home%21\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"pinterest\" title=\"Pin it with Pinterest\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/pinterest.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-linkedin nolightbox\" data-provider=\"linkedin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Linkedin\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.equilter.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F317&#038;title=A%20Weekend%20at%20Home%21\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"linkedin\" title=\"Share on Linkedin\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equilter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/image\/social\/regular\/64x64\/linkedin.png\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sophie and I had a fast but fun visit to Quilting Arts TV studios earlier this week.
