CD Signing at the Fall Craft Bazaar on Patch Barracks

Machine Quilting - Master the Basics CD Workshop

The Gussy Goose has invited me to the Fall Craft Bazaar this weekend in the Patch Barracks Gymnasium. The Bazaar is open from 10:00 to 18:00 Saturday and Sunday, and I’ll be there from 11:00 to 1:00 on Saturday, with the new Machine Quilting—Master the Basics Workshop on CD loaded on the laptop and ready to preview. I’ll also have my latest quilt, Grasping Reality: Fifteen on display. See you there!

Christmas comes early for Electric Quilters

I’m so excited! Electric Quilt is finally releasing Version 6 of the software, just in time for the holidays! I’d been kind of wondering about a new version for a while now. I went to the site this morning to download the free palette for EQ5 (see this post), and saw the news about EQ6. The best part: preordering for shipment in late November gets you a special reduced price on either an upgrade from Version 5, or the full version of EQ6. Wow! They’re giving you at least a $25 discount if you preorder! This one is a “wrap it up and stick it under the tree for yourself” gift. You could even say it was from Santa.

Things that keep me from quilting #9: Sick, sick, sick!

I’ve been down with a really bad cold for nearly a week, and it’s still going strong. There were also issues with a hosting change and server migration that was in the works, so the Driven To Quilt site was having some problems that I had to spend much time on to get it back up and running properly. Anyway, hope you’re all quilting it up out there, and I hope to be back at it soon, too!
