I have grown to love blogging, it’s a habit for me now. I set the goal to blog every weekday a couple of years ago, and I’ve pretty much managed to do that. When I DON’T, I feel this nagging sensation in the back of my head. But I have come to realize that I…
My big project, a DVD produced by the folks of Interweave, was months in the making, most of the time it was tortuously un-bloggable! And although I was able to download the whole thing from Interweave a couple of weeks ago, there was something so awesome about seeing it in person: I absolutely LOVE the…
1st: Don’t forget, my giveaway of Diane Doran’s DVD “Digital Collage for Quilt Design” ends at midnight, enter now! Last week I had a very important collaboration to complete: my younger son Logan needed some lederhosen for a family cultural presentation to his 5th grade class (my hubby’s family is not only Scottish, but there’s…
Woot! Look what the Quilting Arts folks posted on YouTube, an excerpt from my DVD. I think I look a little strange around the eyes, like I don’t want to blink. And I think I say “so” like 10 million times, but besides that, it’s not too bad! Don’t forget, I’m having a pre-order special…
September was a WHIRLWIND! Packing up and returning from Cleveland after taping 2 episodes of QATV and my Workshop DVD, the start of classes at my day job, Andrew’s Dad’s funeral, and then, an email that says the DVD’s are ready for production, and thus bloggable. PHEW! My moment this week was a complete surprise:…
I’m back! We woke up Sunday morning at 4 AM Eastern so we could hop on a plane and get back home in time for Liam to go to orchestra rehearsal Sunday evening. It seems like it’s been a week since we left for Dick’s funeral last Thursday, and in a sense it has. We…
We have been anxiously running to the mailbox this week. Liam auditioned for the Claremont Young Musician’s Orchestra last week, and acceptance letters were supposed to be sent this week. Liam was in the preparatory orchestra last year, here’s a picture from their Winter Concert: The CYMO is quite a select group – it takes…
Social media – although it can be distraction, it keeps me company up in my studio, and has provided me so many great connections. Befriending Susan Brubaker Knapp and Judy Coates Perez on Facebook this year led to me having an unexpected welcome in Cleveland for the QATV tapings. This made such a difference in my…
Exactly one year ago, I wrote a post about my fear of being on camera for Quilting Arts TV. 365 days later, I again am composing my final blog post before I jump in a plane headed East to Cleveland, to film another 2 episodes of Quilting Arts TV! This year, I am not so…
I am SO happy to announce the redesign of Lesley Downie’s website. Lesley is one of my very first web design customers. I built her first site last summer, with the design being built around her first book, which takes place in the Revolutionary War times (and the present, it’s a time travel book). Here’s…
My name is Candy Glendening,and I’m addicted to color! I dye fabric so I can have just the hue & texture I want, and then use it to make art quilts and “everyday art”.
