Dear Reader,

There's a lot of exciting things in Vol VII of the Quilt Chronicles! A revamped (revamp still technically in progress) Facebook group and a little Quilting Month reveal (very little). These are my favourites in this issue! I also realized after I sent last month's Quilt Chronicles that I forgot to include the Quilting Questions section! So it's back this month.

Well, shall we dive in?

In this issue:

1. The Quilting Bee Society
2. ICYMI: Clearance Sale Extended
3. Upcoming: Quilting Month
4. Quilting Questions
5. FREE Desktop (and other devices) Wallpaper

01. The Quilting Bee Society

For too long I've neglected our Facebook group. When I created the group years ago, I envisioned a place where we could learn from one and other and encourage each other to finish projects.

And lately, I've been thinking a lot about old fashioned quilting bees. They used to be community events where all the ladies got together to help each other finish a quilt. There was fellowship and friendship. I want to capture that spirit of community in this revamped Facebook Group. So...that's why I renamed it the Quilting Bee Society!

Going forward I plan to do regular post prompts, polls, and other fun stuff. I'm also hoping to do better at posting my personal projects. Would you join me in creating an online community like what I've described?

04. Quilting Questions

If you're new here, I've wanted to include a section in every Quilt Chronicles issue where you could ask quilting related questions for us to answer in the following month's issue. I may or may not have forgotten to do this last month. So, I have no new questions to answer. Have you got a question?

To submit your questions for next month's email, just hit reply to this email. In the meantime, I have a question for you...
