if Nutrasystem worked for her, why shouldn't she endorse it? more power to her for admitting to herself and the world that she had gotten fat. good for her trying to spread the word about something she knows works. and why shouldn't she get paid for that? how do you know Janome didn't have a good reason to end its relationship with Kaye Wood. how do you know Kaye Wood didn't end it? i'm reading a lot of huffing, puffing and opinion here, but not a single fact. :hunf: |

:) Why does that irritate you? I think it's a riot. :-D :-D :-D El throwing scraps used to really irritate me too, until I realized I have learned more about quilting watching her show than from anyone else. The bonus came when I placed some fabric orders from Quiltinaday and recieved a ziplock baggy with scrap strips in it! :lol: :lol: :thumbup: |
I think that those of us that just LOVED (myself included) should contact Janome to find out Why they dropped Kaye Wood! I love her show too, and her designs.
We should protest,to Janome,that they now have a someone who most likely cannot even begin to know all of what Kaye Wood knows about quilting and sewing. Then again - maybe Kaye Wood was the one to leave on her own. |
I also don't buy anything just because a celebrity has endorsed it. Sometimes I purposely avoid those items!!! LOL
However, I am not a huge fan of Kaye Wood either. This could be just coincident, maybe not....many years ago, I designed a way to make what I called quilted floor blankets for babies. (They laid flatter than regular baby blankets.) The process is the same as what Kaye wood uses for her quilt in a day. I had watched her program on TV for the longest time, but never saw her use this technigue until about 6-8 months after I started selling my quilts to the cruise ships. Coincident? I don't know. Maybe. It just kinda stuck in my craw to see her say this was a design she just came up with....and maybe she did. After all, it wouldn't be the first time that the same idea was thought of by more than one person. :D Ok...I'm done with my vent now too. :) hehehe |
As much as I love Marie Osmond, I'd rather Kaye did Janome.

I lived in Utah for many years, Most of the LDS Ladies that I knew , really could cook, craft, and ,knit and sew, I am a Catholic but appreciatde the skills those ladies had for homemaking and being a mother and most held down a job too, so I think Marie being LDS learned those skills also :thumbup:

I agree with most of you, Marie Osmond is not the same level sewer as Kaye Wood. Kaye Wood has been around for a long time. Did she request to be dropped? Marie Osmond had a display one year at the Houston Quilt Festival. It was just a display with her name there.
Kaye Wood has been teaching quilting for years. Not fair to have dropped her name. |
