Record breaking heat is being felt everywhere. What do you do to beat the heat when the thermometer reaches a new high? Do you quilt at all? Do you head for the basement? Finger press, no hot iron? How do you keep a fan from blowing around your fabric?
What do you do to keep cool?

TQS members, "Quilts for Japan" needs your help with our second phase of relief efforts for the survivors in Japan.
In response to a recent request they have launched, "Project Threads of Hope" which they hope will bring a sense of purpose to the lives of the survivors who have been facing long and difficult days with no jobs to go to or homes to run.
Quilters around the globe upon first learning of Japan's plight, sewed their gifts from the heart to warm the survivors and to bring them hope. Now it's time to work together to share with them what we love, the art of quilting, sewing and creating treasured items for our loved ones.
They ask for your support once more and hope you will find it in your heart to help these people who continue to struggle to find meaning and purpose in their days.
To learn how you can help, click here. They have a September 24, 2011 deadline for collecting kits and supplies.

What was the book that had you seeing double and what did you do with your extra copy?
