Some good news!
KJ
kids to live in while attending college! I didn't even get the sign out of
the back seat of my car before I had someone who wanted to look at it. And
they bought it! Woo hoo!!! That certainly saved me a lot of trouble....no
phone calls, no showings....and I even took the sign back and got my money
back!! I hadn't mentioned it previously....I didn't want to jinx it.
The second good news item. I won a drawing sponsored by Accuquilt!

It should be really fun! DH didn't want to go along so I'm taking one of my
small group buddies. She's usually my Paducah roommate. Cool huh??
Well....all except for the picture......ugh. The trip will be in September.

lovely smile with a death grip on you. Would we call that grace under fire?
We had an easy time like that selling a house. DH was stretched out on
the floor painting the baseboards in the living room, couple came through
and asked if it was going to be for sale, could they look around and could
they buy it?
There wasn't a special trip to Colorado involved however. That's just
SO super. Polly
KJ
couple weeks doing some clean up with the hopes I could sell it myself. I
took a break to go help my mother in Texas for a week or so and during that
time there were many families in our community who were flooded out of their
homes. So we offered it to some friends for a low rent instead of putting
it up for sale. The renter's home is now habitable so I again got ready to
sell it myself. However, I'm not in as good shape this year after my
accident and I was concerned as to whether I was up to the challenge. I was
really dreading lying on the floor to paint baseboards....they did need it.
So it was a real blessing to have this over and done with so easily.
Someone was looking out for me!!! I should say "us" since DH has provided
the funding all these years, but other than that, he's been pretty much
hands off for the maintenance, etc. The house was my responsibility. So we
lucked out! The buyer bought it for his son who will be going to medical
school in the fall.....the house is about 2 blocks from the medical campus.
(That's why I thought I might be able to sell it myself.)
The sweepstakes win was a huge surprise. I didn't even remember entering
when they called. But on further reflection I remembered a quilter Facebook
friend commenting that she had bought an Accuquilt "Go" cutter. So I went
to the website to see what it was. They were the ones sponsoring the
drawing and that's where I entered. The taping will be in Boulder instead
of La Vieta where Ricky lives and they have previously taped their shows.
I'm really curious as to who the guests will be!

What is wrong with that picture?? Having read all the previous posts I
know that it wasn't taken specifically for this use BUT, you look
lovely, happy and just like a prize winner in that shot.

goes better than planned, whether buying or selling. Here on Long Island
everyone says it takes around 6 months to close on a house. I had a
wonderful mortgage guy and we got ours through in less than 2 months. It
took a LOT of work on my part and taking on stuff that they should have been
doing, but it was worth it to me. So if anyone on or coming to Long Island
needs a lender and mortgage person, I highly recommend Bank of America and
Mario Cavallaro. No, I have no affiliation or any of that stuff. I'm just
one extremely satisfied customer.
But I digress. I checked out the Accuquilt link you posted, which led me to
the new website for Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims. Does anyone here have a
membership to their new quilt show? I'm wondering if it is worth the money
to subscribe.
Hugs,
Kim

be renewing, *not* because it wouldn't be worth it: it is full of great
shows and activities; but because I just don't have time to keep up with
it. When I have caught up with this past few months of shows. I may
well renew my membership.
What I have seen is excellent.

really like the show, altho I tend to watch it in random marathons (ie
nothing for several months and then go crazy watching everything). If I
had to choose between subscribing or buying the DVD I would just buy the
DVD. Reasons - better resolution (streaming video is a bit grainy when
full screen), no ads, and it's easy to skip to the section you want to
watch/rewatch. On the other hand, the subscription is more up to date
and is in sync with their web site.

less shows which I actually preferred. There are lots of activities,
blogs, etc., but I don't usually have time for those. I have learned a
lot from the shows though - they certainly get the pick of the top level
quilters.
I treat the subscription as a subscription to a Guild as there isn't a
convenient one around here - and if there was they wouldn't be able to
afford the same calibre of speaker.
As to the adverts - Gammil and Bernina - I just fast forward!
