Welcome to the Quilting Board!
You might be interested in what Pennsylvania is advertising on Face book to encourage those interested in quilting to visit their state this summer. Sounds great, doesn't it? I found it on Facebook under: Pennsylvania Row by Row Quilt Shop Hop. Enjoy.
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.
I didn't see anything special. I must be missing something.
It says "Join Pennsylvania Shop Hop. No fees. Visit shops from 7/1 to 9/2 and receive free pattern from each. Mix and match rows to create your own unique quilt." People often post requests when they are planning a trip for names of quilt shops or fabric stores they might visit while there.
Good for Pennsylvania advertising this on their travel/leisure post.
I am hoping that someone on this board will be able to post a finished quilt from their travel. Should be interesting.

I do not use Facebook OR Twitter
DITTO!! ... and i am beginning to resent the fact that our beloved world of quilting has decided that we quilters are ALL facebook mentalitiesOriginally Posted by stitchinwitch
the rogue quilter - in from wandering in the sun and snow with camera in hand.
I didn't know there was a Facebook mentality. I use Facebook to keep in touch with friends and family all over the country as do all my family and friends. So, what exactly is a Facebook mentality?
Ditto..Ditto...
What on earth is " a Facebook mentality"? Someone who keeps up with the times and uses current technology to keep in touch with friends, avails themselves of good shopping opportunities or learns about the world? I really don't want to turn into one of those " you kids get off my lawn" old people, so I'm trying to not get lost in the technological dust! (Just for a time frame benchmark - we had one static-y black and white console TV, one big black corded phone in the house with a party line,and if you wanted to contact someone in another part of the world, you wrote a letter!) And if we want to pass on "our beloved world of quilting " to the next generation, Facebook and blogging will be right in the thick of it! Just something to consider .....
If you have a computer, I don't know why you wouldn't. You don't have to put on anything you don't want to share, but more and more businesses are using it, and apparently PA tourism is one of them. Lots of good offers are on Facebook, plus I've reconnected with so many friends I had lost track of over the years. Give it a try!
Me either.
When it seems like the world is falling to pieces remember that the pieces are falling into place. We are nearing closer to the End Times.
