Honey, I'm home! I'm back from AQS QuiltWeek in Paducah, KY, and lived to tell about it. More or less. In this episode, I describe my experiences in Paducah, including a meet-up with a listener, scalping tickets to a class, and a conversation with a very nice police officer. Oh, and quilts. Plus I announce the winners of my 3rd Podcastaversary Giveaway, and what's up for the next episode! Thanks for listening!

I'm back from vacation and feeling well-rested and rarin' to... slow down. Sound like a mixed metaphor or oxymoron or something? Check out the creative bytes in this episode to find out what toggle switch just got flipped for me and why. In addition to some highlights from Louisiana, I also talk about my experience doing the Kimberly Einmo Mystery Quilt on Craftsy and where I think I'm heading next. I announce a new "-Along" to keep us entertained, and mention some books I've been reading. A little listener feedback and some information about Google Readers' impending demise, and we have us an episode!

Sandy Raw and Uncut. I didn't edit this episode so I apologize for any sniffles or squeaks you may hear. Fortunately, you can't catch my cold through the airwaves. In this episode (thanks to Nonnie!) all y'all weighed in with your thoughts on reading quilt magazines and quilt books in their print version versus digital, and then I give my two cents.
This topic was spurred by this blog post sent to me by Nonnie: http://blog.caronmosey.com/2013/01/the-future-of-quilting-books-and.html
Leave your comments here to enter in the giveaway sponsored by Sarah in Houston (yay, Sarah!). To win her copy of Afghans and Throws by Luise Roberts, just leave a comment on this episode telling me why I should learn how to knit--how it would change my life. Points awarded for creativity and entertainment value! Comments must be received by or on Sunday, February 17.
