Superior Thread Winners Announced!

February 27, 2015
Pretty Pin Cushion, Free Motion Quilting
Superior’s Magnifico trilobal polyester thread

Good Morning, Quilters!

Have you seen “The Dress Debate” that’s gone viral?  I’m in the “white and gold” category along with one of my daughters–the rest of the family:  blue and black.

What do YOU see?

Fascinating!

Another busy week at The Inbox Jaunt!

THE MYSTERY QUILT-A-LONG

We finished the Mystery Quilt on Wednesday (though there is an epilogue next Wednesday).  I found it “Very interesting, my dear Watson” that you were split down the middle- those who prefer to see a quilt before beginning a project and those who prefer the excitement of a mystery.

I agree with both sides…(how diplomatic of me, don’t you think?)  Let me explain…as a quilter, I would prefer to see the finished quilt, though because this project was small with minimal fabric and time commitment, I think I would have participated…

As the author of the project….The Mystery was much more fun!

BOOK WORMS AMONG US

I really enjoyed hearing how you all feel about electronic readers on yesterday’s post, Are You a Book Worm? I think we are all in the same boat, reluctant, but we have to admit there are advantages.

I loved Brian Dettmar’s (AKA The Book Surgeon)  comment: “Electronic readers allow books to quilt their day jobs and do more important things” (paraphrased)…

I’m just glad we can have BOTH!  I could never give up holding a book in my hands, or the joy of cracking open a quilt book…and then re-thumbing it a million times!

GIVEAWAY

I also found your Goals for 2015 interesting…Definitely a consensus—

  • Finish UFOS
  • Try new Things!

THE WINNERS

Thank you to all who entered!

The winner of a $25 Superior Threads Gift Certificate (may be used on any thread…) is…

Happy Stitching!

    I can see both the white and gold and blue and black! Very weird!! I could not live without my Kindle. I travel a lot and even though I usually go by car, hauling around a bunch of books is heavy!

    I’m in the white gold too but once I read the explanation all I could see was the blue version!

    “The Dress” – I see Light blue and dark greenish brown. So now my question is what color are you wearing in the picture for this site? Is it light blue with a black color?

    I also saw white and gold and was amazed when I saw the dress next to the wedding dress and showing the people, so your eyes have something to compare it to. There is a good explanation of what happens here: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/02/28/science/white-or-blue-dress.html. Even after reading that and seeing the picture of the dress in the other context, where it is clearly blue and black, I can still only see it as white and gold in the original picture. Fascinating!

      And immediately after posting above, I tabbed back to the explanation and scrolled up from the picture that I could see as black and blue to the one that up until that moment was consistently white and gold…and now it is blue and black. So strange.

      I thought it was fascinating too! Glad you liked it!

        Another interesting article that relates to this issue tangentially: http://www.businessinsider.com/what-is-blue-and-how-do-we-see-color-2015-2. Apparently ancient languages did not have the word for blue…and people didn’t ‘see’ it. Hope you enjoy the article.
