He will be here in Denver in a few weeks for an Expo. I would LOVE to take his class, but it is too expensive. I actually never liked the magazine because it read too much like a chic magazine... like sex and quilting... or best kind of chocolate... I just want to quilt, not read a quilting magazine that delved into the bedroom life of quilters.

Have any of you renewed? I haven't read this issue yet but when they run out of articles that I am sure they in reserve it will not be the same.
Has anyone heard what he is up to?

I actually enjoyed his magazine and loved his quarky sense of humor. I'm glad I didn't up my subscription. I knew something was different but couldn't figure out what it was. Now I know.

Well I did alittle research. The company who published Quilters Home was bought by another company and came in and started letting go people Mark worked with. He didn't like that so he left too, they are the same company who puts on the internet show he was doing with Alex Anderson, he is not on that anymore.
Now this information is what I have picked up on the net, nothing from his mouth though. I found comments from him that just said he was moving on to better things and not to worry he'd still be around.
I really do miss his humor in the magazine, the earlier poster who said that the new people are trying to imitate him is right. they are not very good.
i just don't know why they are still using his picture on order post cards that is very mis representing.

I think the show you are referring to is QUILT OUT LOUD with Jodi. The show is on QNNTV. I do agree that the magazine is not what it used to be.
I appreciated Mark's honest opinion about notions and fabrics.

Bummer! I've been meaning to subscribe but never got around to it. Glad now I didn't. His sense of humor really made the magazine stand apart from others. Hope he returns to a medium where it won't cost an arm & leg (e.g., joing QNNTV) to enjoy him.

He was the guest speaker at the MQX dinner last year. He is HOOT, made sure I went to the ladies room before he started. :)
He kept us laughing through the whole meal LOL.
We also enjoyed his show and tell with his quilts.
