Eileen, thanks for the link to Tom's webpage. Very sad not to be able to share his joy with his long-term partner.

I subscribe to Tom's blog and he's had some life changes since his segment was filmed. Here's the link: http://tomrussellquilts.wordpress.com/

I loved the show as well. Everything about it was fun, inspiring, and informative. I watched it at 3 a.m. because of another day of insomnia and it was great watching it while everyone else is sleeping.

I really enjoyed this show. I thought that Dianne was a very gracious guest and I love the sense of freedom she has given me to experiment more with my quilting. Thank you Dianne. I really loved Tom Russell's work as well it was beautiful. His embellishments added so much more to his work. I will be taking ideas from him too thanks Tom.

And Alex, that quicky lesson in piecing different triangular and square shapes was also wonderful and very useful. I am sure I will be watching it again. The Quick and Easy Block Tool is already on my wish list with Amazon! Thanks for a great show everybody.

There's just one tiny gripe... why do the people who get to be in the audience always get all the goodies? I mean it is impossible for me to make it to the shows in La Vita along with about 24,000 others. How about you get one extra goodie bag for each show and one of us out in cyberland could be the lucky winner in whatever way you choose. Come on TQS what do you say? Huh? Pretty Please?
