I’ve been busy working on a new web site for my sister that we launched last night. It’s for daycare providers and parents in Durham Region, Ontario. If you live in the area, or know people that do, please visit. It’s an exciting venture for her and I wish her all the success in the [...]

I added a new page to this site, How to Add a Logo to Blogger. Big thanks to Nicolette for sending me the instructions. You can find the various logos for this site on the Promote page. Did you see that earlier this week, the total number of Quilting Bloggers went past 1,300 respresenting 42 [...]

I’m hoping someone could help me out. I get a few requests a week from Quilting Bloggers that would like to add one of the logos to their sidebar, but they don’t know how. Since I don’t have a Blogger/Blogspot account, I’m not able to tell them how to do it. If someone has time [...]

… I’m really behind these days. A couple of days before Canada Day, I switched Internet providers and something went very wrong, resulting in me having no access for several days.

My mom’s in town to visit for a few days, so posting will be limited, as I didn’t have a chance to get some posts ready ahead of time. However, the newsletter is just about ready to go out, look for it late tomorrow. Have a nice week/weekend!

After reading Alice’s comment, I remembered that I have a stack of Quilting Gallery business cards that I would like to get rid of, so I can order some new ones next month. If anyone would like some cards to distribute at quilt guild meetings or other such events, I’d be more than happy to [...]

We Did It… We Reached a Thousand! Have you seen how many Quilting Bloggers there are now in the directory? As of this writing, 848, which means we need only 152 more to reach the end of June goal of a thousand. I have been overwhelmed with the many kind words that have been sent [...]
