TOM RAMBY said… - Thank you for your kind words about my wall hangings and quilts.
I have been out of pocket to reply back.
I always put some type of wild life (amimals, birds, fish etc.) in my quilts.
I will add some other quilts at a lated time. I have done over 25 quilts and wall hangings.
My wife said I needed to do something while watching football and sports on TV.
My wife has been quilting over 30 years - she is a good teacher for me. She has won many ribbons on her quilts in the different Quilt Guilds. I belong to the Madison Station Quilt Guild also. 200 Ladies and Tom - they call me the Rooster in the Chicken House.
Would like to see more Men Quilters come forward.
Thanks again for your kind words - this encourges me more.
Tom

JIM WEST said… - hi ron, thanks for your nice comment about Quiltposium Magazine. there are a lot of really exciting things going on in my life these days!
besides the magazine i have been escorting tours for Sew Many Places and now being the director of the first annual International Quilt Festival of Ireland, it has me running around like crazy! check out the website www.IQFOI.com
also, i am launching a new company next month called www.QuiltDeal.com where quilters can buy and sell things internationally. i am really excited about this one, as it will be the first FLEA MARKET for quilters to buy and sell everything related to our industry!
take care and here is my direct email to be in better contact with each other: jim@jimwest.ie i live in ireland now and come back and forth from here and the states! :)
