Over the life of this site we have found that many quilters are claiming their own computer in their own space - thus begging the question, if we were to visit you - where would we find your computer and would there be more than one?

Join us for this week's TQS Summer Camp Project from Olfa. This is a fun (and quick!) project to make. One thing that makes it fun is that you sew through the batting and the backing as you go -when you put the last piece on all you have to do is bind the edges because you were quilting as you went!
Why not consider using outdoors to dress up a drab picnic table, or over a solid colored table cloth to make just the right statement for your event. You’ll be amazed at how quickly this project makes up. Be sure to check out each week's project in on the Projects page here. And don't forget to post your creative versions in Show and Tell. Keep up the good work campers!

I LOVE rodeo weekend in Livermore, Ca. Did you know we have the Worlds Fastest Rodeo? We live a few blocks from the rodeo grounds and every year I LOVE talking my morning walk through the area. Trucks, live stock, cowboys and cowgirls grace the landscape. Loving the images I dashed home and grabbed my camera to capture the experience. It struck me like a lightening bolt how sub cultures (as ours) have hidden codes of conduct and expected behaviors - from how we talk, think, compete and express ourselves - all the way down to dress code (I can spot a quilter a mile away!). It really got me thinking......How would you explain to an anthropologist who we are as a community?

Of course you know TQS is the most comprehensive quilting site in the world and exploring it all takes a while. Did you know that under the menu button above "THE FORUM" there is a list of quilt EVENTS posted by "you." With summer travel on the minds of everyone, check out the events that are listed. You can list your upcoming event if it's not already there. If you find an event you think you'll be attending there's a place to raise your hand to say, "Hey, I'm coming!"
For example, look what's been happening this weekend in Pine, Arizona!
Here's the short cut link - GO TO EVENTS.

At a taping in March 2010, Alex and Ricky visited The Quilt House. It is a 1500 sq ft house devoted entirely to quilting. It is owned by Jenny Mostek, who actually lives next door with her family. Aside from quilting there is another definite theme to the house which you'll probably detect. To learn more about Jenny and her quilting abode, watch Show 612: Nature's Journey with Gloria Loughman at Jenny's house.

Hey gang. This is made from class sample bits. It is certainly in line with my 'caveman' piecing. Just finished it today - so looking for names again. Any suggestions?

The templates from Lesson 4 are available for download for right or left handed quilters. In Lesson 5 it's time to cut the mirror image strips. Your Star is getting close.
If you haven't started, now is the time. The lessons are short and you can catch up easily this week.
