[texasquilter1]

this is wonderful . its so good to see you here ... thank you so very much , you have made my days better

[redjello333]

I have just watched your quilt making journey and it was amazing. I never knew what a quilt was - I thought it was all about putting the fabric pieces together, not the stitching. It's amazing and you are an inspiring character and really quite ageless in your artistic talents. Thank you!

[cinquehicks]

Wow, this is really beautiful! I like what you had to say about tradition. Have you made the DVD?

[atree3]

I made a DVD, then decided to add the unveiling party. Haven't done that yet.

[atree3]

It will be a while

[zeddic23]

... thank you sweetheart ...

[wizzlewolf]

Oh my. I wish. Right now, I am going through the AGE thing. I HATE my job. I want to do something more peaceful. Yet, I am only 54 years old. I have to keep going or I will lose my retirement. I watch your vids and wish I was there. I too have a little art estate. I might lose it if I choose to let teaching go. It is sad reality. I have been there for thousands. Now, I am all alone. I just want to be an artist. That's all. Maybe in another life??????

[wizzlewolf]

It has been quite a "trip". THANK YOU for providing this opportunity to watch such a wonderful experience. I am right there with you. I know the silent times of creating. I know the exuberation of the finale. Margaret, I want to be you! I am aiming for this destination. You give me hope. Thank you.

[atree3]

oh, you will probably leave me in the dust . . .

[fingercheese]

Such a wonderful experience...

[atree3]

so glad you were part of it

[GreginND]

What an amazing experience to travel along with you on this quilt journey. Now that it is done I can't wait to see where you will take us next.

Merci beaucoup.

[atree3]

thanks

I'm resting up

[tevagrrrl]

i learn so much from you...and am deeply inspired by what you share with us...thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

[terrorbite]

Holy crap. Not that I want to draw attention to your age, but you have the "spark" (for lack of a better word) of someone half your age. You'll probably go on to live to 150 or something, hehe.

[Weatherhill1]

That entire series was so apart from anything I ever thought

I'd be viewing on YouTube... and TOTALLY, TOTALLY, enjoying!

YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION!!!!

[atree3]

[jrt31169]

i joined in very late, but you are one of only two people who have ever made me truly interested in quilting. as a male who is in his mid-20s I am not versed in quilting very much, but the beauty of what you have produced is beyond wonders. great job.

[atree3]

there are some very fine male quilters

[Sonnie55]

You are such a lovely and inspiring woman. Your beauty could never be wiped away with years Atree.  :)

[atree3]

you are looking at what is left

[Sonnie55]

Not to work you too hard in the comment section, but I have to reply to your statement!

Then I cannot imagine what you had when you had it all girl. You just rock, and I'm not talking about in a rocking chair! ;) I love what you allow us to see in you. I'm quite sure you have a great deal tucked away with many other personal treasures. Sonnie

[atree3]

thanks, guess I'll keep opening windows and doors

[Sonnie55]

Hehehe...."fine male quilters." Don't forget we've seen you in action for Grandpa Xelander, madam. *wink*

[jawjjj]

it's a lovely quilt, full of bananas and superheroes. it was a very calming process. :)

[atree3]

considering the imagery!

[davidsolo]

how wonderful to see this glorious quilt's completion and the dedication and thought...omg! as I was writing this I heard you mention my name and you just made me feel like I'm now a part of this creation and I feel very honoured. Thank you! You are so amazing... keep being as fabulous and intricate as the magnificent quilt you've just completed. Peace!

[atree3]

thanks for joining in the quilting bee

[amjPeace]

This quilt is a thing of beauty, even more so beacause it stirs memories of all the wisdom you shared as you stitched it.

[atree3]

I feel the same way, thanks to you

[amjPeace]

You can imagine all of us giving you a warm hug whenever you wrap yourself in your new quilt. ...and don't think for one minute that we didn't notice that special twinkle in your eyes when you said the name of one particular gentleman at 3:58.

[tommy30507]

Zenith Strife

[atree3]

[mieses2pieces]

You did a beautiful job making a very unique quilt. Thanks for the shout out.

[atree3]

you were a part . . .

[liketelevisionsnow]

this may have been the first online quilting bee...fantastic

[ClarinetDan]

How much will the dvd's be?

Thanks for mentioning me!

I think the quilt looks nice, but my mother prefers color schemes on her quilts. Thank you for putting in the time to make a video log of this. The series has helped me to feel more connected to the projects I have started, and an unwillingness to rush through or give up.

Thank you :)

[Tobie2]

Mixed emotions. Accomplishment and Happy Ending. Sad that its over. Withdrawal symptoms.....

Love the signature!

Ps Love the music in this too.

[atree3]

I'm already nostalgic

[Tobie2]

Oh good! I thought I was the only one :O)

[JonnyAsher]

Wow!!!! there was something very therapeutic I felt while watching your whole series on quilting, I was able to escape the business of the Los Angeles Hollywood Life. When I heard you say my name, I got chills!! YOUR REAL!!! She actually knows I EXIST!!!!!

Watching your videos triggered the feeling I used to get when I would lay on the couch with my head on my mothers shoulder while she would sow the buttons back on my pants.. SO THERAPEUTIC!!

[atree3]

Surprised she didn't have you take them off!

[silentfades]

I really didnt or dont want this to end

Marc in NYC

[atree3]
