Question of the Week - May 5th

Some of my friends and I love going out to thrift stores and garage sales to what kind of wonderful treasures are out there.  I have found old quilt blocks, fabric stashes, etc etc.  My question this week...what your best find? 

Here is mine from today. 

Question of the Week - 4/23

I love to shop local quilt stores and keep the money in my area.  I have worked at a quilt store and have expectations of how customers should be treated.  There is a local quilt store near me that I have had 1 good experience and 3 that have turned me off.  I will not be going back there after my experience last week.

So my question to you...is there a local quilt store that does something you do not like?  How do you deal with this?

Note:  PLEASE do not call out shops directly.  I don't want to call people out because that does none of us any good.  Just an opportunity to vent. 

Question of the Week - April 17th

Quilts make lovely gifts for most occasions. I made a few during 2011, but how many quilted gifts did you make in 2011? Care to share photos.

Below is one of mine that went to a friend for her new baby.

Question of the Week - April 7th

Have you ever met or really want to meet a designer?

I met Lotta Jansdotter in her shop. She's amazing, wonderful, and super nice. I was completely star struck. Can't wait to go back to NYC to stop by again.

Thanks everyone that commented about their favorite magazines last week. There is just so much out there in print. So, let's build off that and talk the internet options.

I was in Jo-Ann's this morning picking up some elastic and Heat Bond for a couple of upcoming projects. As I waited in line I looked at the number of quilting magazines. There are so many. So my question is...

What is your favorite or go to quilting magazine?
