While reading posts this morning, the one about meeting another board member in a shop. Is there some way we could develop a name tag or such to wear when at a quilting event? or ??? It would be fun meeting others from Quilter's Board when at the shows. Example I will be at the AQS show in Des Moine in October--would be fun meeting others who hang out here. Just a thought.

I like the idea of something simple. How about a 4-5 inch square of yellow (easy to spot)fabric with QMB stitched (painted-written in permanent marker--however) Name, state and screen name. Pin to jacket or blouse or whatever. I thought of the bright color because years ago we sponsored a bus tour to a show and wondered how we would keep track of everyone, so made bright orange squares with their names on. It did make the patrons easy to spot in a crowd. Was a conversation starter too. We used those orange tags for quite a lot of years--it was kind of a joke after a while. "OH, your on the bus".grin

I'd love to see a board area for local info/events/groups.
I'd love to find others in my local area to sew with, go to shows with, etc. It would be awesome!

That section is called Offline Events, Announcements, Discussions and is between Links and Classifieds on the main page or down below at the bottom of this one.
