When my St. Louis-to-D.C. flight landed late last night, we taxied on the runway; once I fetched my luggage I taxied on home and then I taxied my batooski right into bed.
Tonight and tomorrow, that’s all we got in Columbia’s District before heading onto Chicago to tape twenty-seven episodes of Quilty in three days. That’s just how good we are, brother. The days are long but the days are good and this time, they’ll be extra hard and extra good because it’s my last shoot. Many of you know now that the magazine is closing but they’re keeping the show going and I’m sure the person they put in the host position will be fabulous and do a far better job than I ever did; it’s my sincere desire that this is precisely what happens.
In St. Louis, I met so many devoted Quilty fans. It’s hard to leave. It’s really hard to leave. If I think about it too long, I feel wistful and sorry. But there are projects on the horizon that swoop in and take that maudlin business away and that’s what I grab onto. I can’t talk about anything, yet, because nothing is final, yet; counting chickens before they hatch is like, the worst job you could ever, ever want. Tedious, stinky, and you’re probably gonna be wrong.
I’ll just do the shoot this weekend and go from there.

Oh nooooo! The ONLY quilting magazine I buy…I cannot believe someone is buying it and burying it all at once!! The Quilty magazine is always so full of quilting ideas, stories, and the never ending amount of tutorials and information!!!!! I save all of the Quilty issues that I’ve purchased because there is so much reference material and tons of ideas!! I only began quilting around 3 years ago so I only have a tiny stack and I had foolishly thought I could work on slowly purchasing all of the other issues but now it’s appearing that that will not happen!! I’m so disappointed about the new buyer, why do they think its okay to do this? So sad!!!!!!
