I've subscribbed to the Quilting Board for a long, long, time but have never been inspired to write anything. But now I'm so upset about what has happened at Quilter's Home magazine, I had to vent! I read Mark's blog, which doesn't say why he left the magazine, and it sounds like he's into all kinds of things. I loved his mag.....his natural way of communicating seemed like he was always talking to me directly. I loved his sense of humor and his directness. It was (and I emphasize the "was") a refreshing publication. I personally found most of the articles useful, if not interesting. I just received the February 2010 issue and (someone else mentioned this) they are trying to copy his style--only without Mark's wry sense of humor (I loved it when he called us "cupcakes." I'm cancelling my subscription immediately!
