Thank you, Barb. I'm going to send TQS an email to see if there's something they can do. I can't be the only one!

Geneva - fun to hear about your grape harvest! Keep us in the loop re your progress.

I believe the “signature box” signature was imported from an outside website that was disabled after a TQS update

Luann, I enjoyed your blog post this morning. You have been busy! Traveling is fun, especially to see loved ones. And you've been doing a lot of different things. Good for you!

I remember that there was a way to get your signature on the bottom of these pages, but I could never gt it to work for me. I don't remember how it was done.

Yesterday we picked grapes. We have 15 Cabernet Sauvignon plants in our front yard. We cut 3 big buckets of grapes, washed them and then stripped all the grapes off the stems. That was a lot of work. Now we have 2 big buckets of grapes. They weigh a total of 70 pounds! Goof grief! That's a lot of grapes.We plan to try our hand a t making wine. Let's hope it is at least decent. :dry:

I'm now quilting the background piece for the Mariner's Compass pieces. It's coming along!

Take care, geneva

I've had a good look Eileen and I can't find edit signature anywhere. It was discussed on a thread when I added mine several years ago.
I've forgotten to use my journal much the last couple of months and want to kick myself it did keep me on track not only in quilting. Must get in the habit again its lovely reading the heart jottings back over time.

I'm semi-retired from longarming. I only work for friends and family. I'd like to drop my machine from my signature block, but I can't see how to do it. No, I haven't been journaling. I know I should, but I forget. I'm getting the new Quilter's Planner-the format I'm getting has room for journaling.

Eileen,
The blocks in the table runner are from deconstructed screen printing. It was a few years ago, but I finally am getting at 'a few' of my older projects, lol
The locker hooking piece will become a cover for a footstool, if things go as planned, another bigger LOL.
It seems that so often what I plan is 'not' what I do!!
Are you still longarming? I saw your request for how to change information.
Have you been journaling? I recently ordered the Full Focus Planner! Made the mistake of getting the yearly subscription and I’ll get one for each quarter. That wouldn’t be bad, but it’s way too 'work focused' for me. But, I’ll use them as I get them, and draw in my sketchbook. Live and learn.
Hope things are going well for you.

LuAnn, you have been busy! I like the bright colors, but I like the soft ones too-did you dye the blocks in the table runner? Are you hooking a rug or a picture?

Hard to believe but,,, I’m on the right day (US anyhow).
This past month was vacation time with all the family back in Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan. Lots of fun, but I’m TIRED!! 3500 miles in 12 days is a lot on a Mature woman’s body, lol

Been busy with the usual things, sewing, quilting, longarming (for myself and for Charities).
I’ve put up a blog post for those of you that want to catch it, pretty short this month.

Here are a couple of the eye candy pieces I was involved in:

Eileen, that photo was from the cliff dwellings at Mesa Verde. Approximately 700 years ago.

I do enjoy the grands and savor every moment! Seattle is COLD this week.

Tomorrow i will go to Pacific Fabrics, it’s awesome!

Happy quilting everyone!
Sharon

Does anyone know how I can change my signature? I want to get rid of my longarm information.

Thanks,

I do remember Kalynn from TQS. She was on the forums quite a bit in the early days. Sorry to hear of her passing so young. May she rest in peace.

Sharon, I get to see my grandson a lot but it's never enough, so I'm sure you enjoyed your grandies! Is that pueblo a real place people used to live? It's amazing!

Terry, I know how you feel about the embroidery module of the machine. I'm still scared of mine! I've taken a couple of classes at a shop and took a one day class with Sarah Vedeler at MQX in April, and I haven't touched it since. <sigh> You've given me hope-I'm just going to have to bite the bullet and do it.

Sharon, Grandma moments are wonderful and stash enhancement too. . .what could be better? Glad that your injury is healing. Geneva, beautiful quilts. . I loved seeing them "in the wild!" Congratulations on selling a piece of your art!

This year, I'm chair of the challenge quilt at one of the guilds I belong. At the meeting last Thursday, I greeted people coming to hear the speaker with a little sample a friend had made to encourage participation. During the guild year, my plan is to write articles with tips about various parts of the quilting process. I'm republishing the article the first Wednesday in my blog. I started an instagram #2020bustyourstashchallenge thread as a place to post photos and of course I welcome comments on my blog! I hope many people participate! The reveal will be in April at the quilt show. Otherwise, I've continued progress on various projects. Miss K worked on her mermaid. Using fabrics from friend Martha's stash, I stitched Miss K a vest. It is so soft! Between Martha and me, we made almost 50 items for the other guild I belong to boutique. The sale was held over the weekend during the quilt show and by the middle of opening day, many of our items sold.

I finished a little wall hanging and incorporated beading. I had fun with the beading and can see that beading could develop into a habit! Miss J won big at the county fair with her first quilt. I so love her smile! I started quilting a project that I last posted about in December. My goal is to finish it before the end of September!

In my quest to conquer the embroidery part of my machine, I embroidered two t-shirts. You can read post 1 and post 2. I'm happy with the progress I am making on projects that have been in process for months and years!
