the rogue quilter said… - hi again nancy...just wondering how you are feeling now about the mystery quilt. i too am following, tho not member of group...didn't want to confuse things by signing up and not contributing. not a fan of modern quilt movement, in that it is not my preferred style. i do admire some of the quilts i have seen in online websites of modern quilt movement groups. do you think that you may go ahead and do this one later. i am saving the weekly pattern thingys too.
also, i see i neglected to post the link with the notes fr the aqs re: the letter everyone is discussing...sorry here it is
http://myquiltplace.com/forum/topics/aqs-invite-email
there are several responses to sue (who started this discussion) responses to remarks from others in this discussion forum, from a American Quilters Society person.

- oh...& mine aren't ready for jurying yet either...now beth, sue (who started the discussion the link takes you too...) and several others here, that i can't remember names of right now, they are definitely juried class quilters. and they aren't pro...don't sell on websites...a couple do..but mostly they are just people enjoying this form of creative needlework like you & i.

- hi nancy, just read comment you posted on the "mystery" group page (have been following along, looks like fun ..there will be some very interesting quilts come out of it), anyway the comment you made about those of us here at mqp who have "connected". i had had similar thoughts. also, as far as "trolling" our pages, they stated already that the indiviual that sent out the emails had gone to a bunch, and probably all with a team to help, the gallery photos we as members have posted here looking at quilts and deciding who would recieve invites. they also said that not everyone on site recieved invite. so...whatever...
btw...hi! :)) ..looked at your art work, beautiful. hope you are enjoying our little club here at mqp.

I think I chat way too much! I talk too much when I talk too.
That sounds really interesting about using Texture Magic for machine embroidery. I need to pull mine out and start playing with it again. I've used it in a couple of quilts and it always turns out great. I made my mom an applique' wall hanging and some of the flowers were made with the Texture magic and they really turned out nicely. I buy it by the yard because I love it so much.
I can't wait to see the flowers you're creating!
