Some good news!

I'll try that! Sounds like a good way to multi task!

Congrats on the sale and the win!! It's going to be fun looking for you in the audience - maybe you could ask a question???? :) Allison

R/Sandy- enjoying the good news, quilt-related & all

Congratulations on both Kathy. That's wonderful to hear. I love when housing goes better than planned, whether buying or selling. Here on Long Island everyone says it takes around 6 months to close on a house. I had a wonderful mortgage guy and we got ours through in less than 2 months. It took a LOT of work on my part and taking on stuff that they should have been doing, but it was worth it to me. So if anyone on or coming to Long Island needs a lender and mortgage person, I highly recommend Bank of America and Mario Cavallaro. No, I have no affiliation or any of that stuff. I'm just one extremely satisfied customer.

But I digress. I checked out the Accuquilt link you posted, which led me to the new website for Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims. Does anyone here have a membership to their new quilt show? I'm wondering if it is worth the money to subscribe.

Hugs, Kim

My membership (kindly given to me by Sally) is about to end. I will not be renewing, *not* because it wouldn't be worth it: it is full of great shows and activities; but because I just don't have time to keep up with it. When I have caught up with this past few months of shows. I may well renew my membership.

What I have seen is excellent. . In message , KimW writes

I subscribe to the show AND I bought the DVD for the first season. I really like the show, altho I tend to watch it in random marathons (ie nothing for several months and then go crazy watching everything). If I had to choose between subscribing or buying the DVD I would just buy the DVD. Reasons - better resolution (streaming video is a bit grainy when full screen), no ads, and it's easy to skip to the section you want to watch/rewatch. On the other hand, the subscription is more up to date and is in sync with their web site.

I have trouble keeping up too! I joined in the beginning when there were less shows which I actually preferred. There are lots of activities, blogs, etc., but I don't usually have time for those. I have learned a lot from the shows though - they certainly get the pick of the top level quilters.

I treat the subscription as a subscription to a Guild as there isn't a convenient one around here - and if there was they wouldn't be able to afford the same calibre of speaker.

As to the adverts - Gammil and Bernina - I just fast forward!
