Mark, you are an inspiration (to say the least). Your approach to quilting, and life in general, is refreshing. I look forward to your zany antics and wish your magazine was monthly!
Happy Independence Day to you and your loved ones.

I love scrapbooking goodies! They can definitely inspire you for quilting and you don’t have to use the goodies just for scrapbooking – you can cut them up to do paper crafts, scan them and print them onto fabric, and if you’re really into machine embroidery you can scan them, digitize them and use them on your own personal embroidered piece.

Scrapbooking has taken a back seat to quilting, I am afraid. I have the first 3 years of my son’s scrapbooks finished. I need to get busy…he is only 32!

Hey, I bought a digital program for scrapbooking just to use for quilt presentations. There are a zillion ideas from scrapbooking to use as designs for sewing projects. I use them for ideas on my fabric postcards.

Scrapbooking looks like something I’d like to do, I have millions (well, nearly) of pictures I’ve taken and they need somewhere special to live.

I was a scrapbooker before I was a quilter, but I excel at quilting whereas I would say I’m mediocre with the scrapping. Why comment then? Well, my best friend has a birthday coming up and she’s as addicted to scrapping as I am to quilting!
