      Betty Jo--I'm finding it challenging to post twice a week too! For me it seems the day to post comes sooner than expected. If you are concerned about not having enough material, you could post about how you changed something in a quilt and why. . .even one that you made a while ago. . .I would enjoy reading that kind of information!

      Nancy---Your seahorse is terrific. I love the seaweed and "snails!"

          It is hard to post multiple times in a week. I don't know how Bonnie Hunter does it with her daily postings. Don't be too stunned but I actually run out of words!!!! LOL

            Hi Betty Jo, I love your spiral galaxy 3 on the main TQS page. I know that I am probably off topic but .... B) that's nothing new.
            I'm intrigued about Jo Jo's world quilting adventure where do I find out more?
            Best wishes to all

                  Figured I'd better get this post up before I started JoJo's journey today. I've been making progress on this president's blocks.
                  You can read about it here:

                  Half way is WONDERFUL because it means that finished is coming!

                      I'm looking forward to beginning JoJo's journey; but, not until I finish those president's blocks!!!!

                          First Souvenir Finished! There is still time to board the bus for the next destination but you have to request your passport before we depart Oregon in order to receive the pattern/souvenir for free.

                              I just posted on my blog, A Positive Outlook about my crazy quilt piece, "Simple Times - Photos from My Grandmother's Album." Please stop by if you have a moment. Have a wonderful week!

                                I am sew excited, my barn quilt, The Heart of America was juried into the Pacific International Quilt Festival show in Santa Clara, CA on October 13-16, 2016. If anyone out in TQS land would be attending that show would you pretty please take a picture of my quilt, with hopefully a ribbon. I will text you my email.

                                Thanks in advance, Sharon in Colorado
