Pokey Bolton announced that there is a shakeup at Quilting Arts. You can read the whole deal on her blog. I’d like my title to be Chief Creative Officer. I’ll get right on that.
I would have kept this news for a Various and Sundry post, since this is the perfect tidbit for that kind of post. I didn’t want to be posting it in 3-4 weeks, however.
Whoa! Thanks for the info.
I’m with you and want to add “CCO” to my name. Now to find someone who will pay me to do that!
Since you seem to be in the quilty-know, do you know what’s going on at Fabric Trends? I’m dying of curiousity and can’t find anything on the net about it.
Mark has taken a leave of absence, because of his illness.
It just seemed strange to me that his name would be taken off the magazine completely, though. The cover doesn’t say “Mark Lipinski’s Fabric Trends” this month like it did last issue. Well, I really hope he gets better soon; he seems like such a geniunely nice person. And the magazine was NOT the same without him this time. Thanks for the info.
Write to the editor/publisher and say that you really miss Mark’s ‘voice’. I think they will listen.
Hello,
w
Was soooo sad when I got to my DVR and you were not on….
Almost cried. I have enjoyed you all through the years, when you were a guest on different shows and then your own show.
will miss you.

I also was so sad that she left it is not the same now they have taken a different turn
It is always sad when the founder leaves. I know what you meant. Thanks for reading and commenting.
I really do not like the new host. She runs her mouth so much the poor guest can hardly get a word in. If she let the guest explain what it is they do instead of trying to sound like she knows everything the show would be better. I watch but only after I record it and bleep out the parts that bother me, Susan! She drives me nuts and my friends say the same thing.
That is a shame. They don’t play this show in my local area, so I haven’t seen it.
my thoughts exactly, she’s obnoxious thats why I stopped watching the show. she needs to chill! the experts are on to show and explain their crafts not for her to do it.
I agree with your comments on the new host
I also miss seeing Pokey hosting the show. Google the answer to find out.
