There is another quilting newsgroup? I thought this was the only one! Do,
either post it here, or email it to me privately if you don't mind. I love
all the different quilting sites that everyone posts.
Thanks,
Shelly

You will hardly believe this: but at this precise moment EXACTLY the
same thing is happening on the other quilt list I subscribe to.

NAME: rec.crafts.textiles.quilting
REPLACES: rec.crafts.quilting
CHARTER: [unchanged] This newsgroup is for discussing anything

related

to quilting. That includes piecing, applique, and tyeing and

quilting

by hand or machine. Discussions may cover techniques,
supplies,equipment, drafting of patterns, templates, dyeing

materials,
artistic approaches, exhibitions, shows, books and other
references, mail order resources, dating quilts and
appraising
quilts.
Discussions may include quilts and quilting both past
(historical quilting) and present, ethnic quilting, quilts to be

used
in
a home, quilted clothing to be worn, as well as quilts created
for display and any other piecing or quilting

applications









So I guess all of the off topic (such as diet talks and the like ) are
also forbidden by the charter ?vbg just wondering and playing

alittle
devils advocate ( hoping to help put things in perspective
too).............


SMILE :-) Actually this very discussion once caused a very, very, very
big flame war causing a number of members to leave the group. Some
because they wanted to talk about everything but quilting Even More than
what goes on and some because they didn't want anything off topic At
All. Many mean and nasty things were said.

Thank heavens nothing of that scale has since happened.

Having owned 4 different sewing email lists in the past , I have

learned
to privately email people when they "commit an offense" and them cut
them some slack if it is their first time as the good lord knows we are
all human and make mistakes....it should be the repeat offenders that
are jumped on like bandits in the night.
So she committed a faux pau, now she knows better....life moves on and
so should we .....

just my personal 2 cents worth....
