      I watched and enjoyed it.... Liked seeing what Puducha and Houston Quilt Shows are like as I will never get there. I would love to learn how CAROL FALLERT does her curved piecing on large strips of fabric for her backgrounds. I would have liked some more interviews from other quilt stars.... they were there and could have gotten some sound bites. I think it was kind of trying to HIGHLIGHT controversy between TRADITIONAL QUILTERS AND ART QUILTERS. TO me that argument is so old news and there is place in the world for both and I want to do it all even if I am not good at all.

        If you were on the fence about going to Houston, this should certainly whet your appetite!

            It was in today's newsletter. I expect it will be on the forum some time today, after the west coast folks get up and at 'em! :wink:

              I saw the premiere at the Cincinnati show in the Spring. It's a wonderful look into a level of quilting most of us only aspire to, but it offers a great look into the creative process that is part of every quilter. If you're into Country Western music, you'll absolutely love the sound track on this film. Well worth the time to view (and to listen to).

                    It was not exactly a "feel good" movie for me. Yes, the quilts looked wonderful - but there always seemed to be some sort of controversy. I really don't ever want to meet any of those crabby older ladies with their closed minds about anything but hand quilting. Plus - SO many overweight people. No wonder our health care expenses are so high.

                    I'm not sure I'll even recommend this movie to any of my friends. I was pretty glad when it was over. Oh....I liked Randall a lot.

                      I loved the movie! Made me want to get out my sewing machine and get to work. Very inspiring to see the table top machine quilting work and I love Carol's idea of the clamp! Every art form has controversy with new vs. traditional. I found that each "camp" had their justified POVs. I'm thrilled they made the movie and could have watched more footage of the show and quilters. Thanks so much for providing access.

                        Watched Stitch this morning. I really did like it. Carol has been a hero of mine since I ran into her web site just browsing the internet. I went back time after time trying to soak up the color and inspiration, so creative and talented. I think the traditional vs. art quilts controversy will always be around. Really they are two different venues that need their own place and rewards. I love and admire both and hope to become more artsy in the future. Thank you for the gift of viewing this cool film.

                          I just watched it, I really liked it. I have never been to any of the big shows like that, so it was really cool to get a look at one. I would love to go to Houston! I guess they wanted to highlight the "controversy" of the art vs traditional quilts. I really don't think you can compare the traditional quilts with the art quilts, they are just two completely different types of quilts. I actually love them both. I am totally impressed by the imagination that goes into the art quilts and the traditional quilts will always be amazing.

                            While it was interesting to watch these three, big time quilters, as they worked to get their quilts to Houston; it seemed to leave me feeling like anything I could make would never make the standard of Houston.

                              I watched it first thing this morning...even before I had breakfast! I had mixed emotions about it. I would loved to have seen more of the quilt making process and not so much about the art vs. traditional quilting controversy. There is obviously a place in this world for everyone's quilts and I thought that was focused on a little too much since there was so much else that could have been included to offer a lot more impact. I adore Carol and Holli's pieces and I would like to learn more about Randall. It was fun seeing Ricky there!
