Comments (0)There has been over the past several weeks, a lively conversation in the “Quilt Art” group about goals vs resolutions.
Like so many things, it got me thinking - always a dangerous thing. So I started Planning my first 2007 What Wheat Wrote blog-A-Mentry-
It had to be about goals, and the music and lyrics I use most often when I need a jump start -
and so it will be tomorrow
Meanwhile, one of my Big Picture goals is to take the time to apply SEO to EVERY thing that I web-publish - including emails, blog-a-mentry, and of course domain pages, will have the basics of SEO applied.
Among the Business treasures I have found While Web Wandering, has been the classes offered by
J “Cricket” Bailey and much of what I will be applying can be learned or extrapolated from Cricket’s various FREE courses.
I know these next weeks will be busy ones for us all, but I would URGE you, especially those who feel they need more grounding in what the goals for Preview Promenade encompass and how to reach them, including quite a bit of basic help in how to write your entries, now and later for the best long term results for your personal blogs, your web pages and all your on-line marketing ventures.
These next few weeks will be hectic, but set a goal to join these classes, set up a folder in your email client so you can come back each day and spend a bit of time working through the messages and assignments in the coming weeks and months at your own pace.
Take the time today to start the process, visit

I know you will find some of the ingredients we need to make the pie bigger, so we all get a better slice.
Peaceful & Prosperous Wishes for 2007

Comments (0)I’ve been kind of quiet for a few days, two big roll outs in less than a week, and it ain’t done yet
The worst has not been being able to share - although I am told there has been lots of interesting speculation
So now it’s time to start the Dance Into The Light and start to share !
Retailers (and other interested users of yarn and thread)
Hope you will drop by over the weekend and find out what the TNNA-Designers & Teachers have to share with you as you plan your trip to TNNA.
And for those who Retailers who carry KFI distributed yarns, the exciting news we hope to see you at KFI-Retailers the new Yahoo group.
“Details to follow”
Tonight, let’s just dance into the light with more than fingers on a keyboard

Comments (0)Periodically, manufacturers, publishers, editors and distributors, MPED, issue a Call For Designs.
The good news is they can, cause we are still looking and nothing would help more than to find comments providing links to the information we need in support of Muench, or KFI, and Brown Sheep.
So, if you read this far, and have patterns that fit the criteria, you can use comments to leave me the details. Please note, they will not be made public but will be shared with the Retailers & MPEDs clients requesting we conduct the research for them)
Peace of the Season

Comments (0)The last few weeks have just been flying by. With several major projects almost ready to go really public I am sincerely wishing for a really good “voice to text” system from Santa -
As some of you may have read, I have been pretty excited about a new project for Retailers commission by KFI - Knitting Fever. I have been assisting the KFI Manager of Operations with several new things for KFI retailers. It begins with a private Yahoo discussion group for their customers, the retailers. The goal is to provide a place for positive interaction between the more than 1500 shops in the US who offer the products distributed by KFI. I expect once Jeff’s letter reflecting on changes this year and letting their Retailer know a bit of what coming - the KFI-Retailer@yahoogroups.com will be a terrific resource for all involved.
My other big project is for the TNNA-Designers & Teachers as we are all preparing for the TNNA, The National Needlework Association Winter Show holds major wholesale to the trade events several times a year. A group of TNNA-Designers & Teachers are creating an opportunity for the Retailers who will be attending to get a sneak peak. That site will open late next week.
Last but not least, also almost ready to start is a site called YarnQuest - where anyone searching for “just one (or two or many) more skeins to finish a special project will be able to fill out a form and it will be “broadcast” to Independent Retailers who will then email you if they have what you need “on the shelf”. But this may have to wait until after the first of the year. There just aren’t enough hours in the day to get it all done
Now, after a night where it seemed we should be considering building an ark, the sun is out, so the computer is getting “turned off” for a few hours while we put up the outside decorations, then some last minute shopping for the first celebration’s menu.
Once that is done, well it will be back to TCB - Taking Care Of Business & Working Over Time
And all the things on temporary hold
Talk to you soon
Peace of the Season
