LIVE Broadcast Friday January 8, 2021

[Barbara B.]

I was asked to do a LIVE tomorrow, Checking In, discussing things that have come up this week, explaining the difference between the Show, the LIVEs and the Videos. Hope you can join me.

10 am PST, Noon CST, 6 pm London, etc.

It can be found on The Quilt Show playlist on YouTube and on Facebook—Alex Anderson’s professional page, Ricky Tims professional page, and The Quilt Show with Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims Facebook page.

Looking forward to it.

To Barbara,
I was thinking that I might do my Mariner’s Compass in the purple and gold and was wondering if the kit had enough fabric to do that or do I need to find another resource for the plum and gold.
Thanks,
Susie

Yes, you do. I ran out of those two toward the end of the quilt because the original kit had quarter-yard pieces. I increased that to third-yard pieces. They were two of my most favorite of all the kit fabrics--each has a sheen to it. So if you use for the Mariner's Compass, you can make lots of Small Houses/Tall Buildings with the remaining.

And remember to use more of the two blues for your houses that Wendy used in her Mariner's compass--there are half yards of those two blues so you will have plenty of those for building your houses.

Barbara, thank you so much for your video. You give so much inspiration and I always enjoy seeing your beautiful quilts.

Hi! Is it possible to put a link to your live shows in your forum message? It would be a great help.

Thank you for posting the link here. Question: do the BOM 2021 specific LIVES show up in the Shows list?
I suspect not but would love confirmation. Also, can we expect a new Forum experience once the new website goes live?
Finally, and most importantly, please convey my heartfelt condolences to Alex and her family. My father passed in February 2020,
I have to say I am glad he went before all of this Covid 'ish' hit. It must have been so hard not to be able to hold her mother's hand at the end.
May her mother's memory be for a blessing.

No, the LIVEs are not official Shows. They do live on the Quilt Show Playlist on YouTube.

Going forward, I will post a Topic reminder about an upcoming LIVE, then come back when it’s done and add the link to it.

Yes, much time has been put into improving the Forum. It will be easier to add photos and you will be able to add a comment directly on a post. And lots of other good things. There will be some time spent on my LIVEs showing the features of the new site. And Alex will do a big tour once it’s up. I will post that to our Forum when it happens.
