I’ve been a member of The Quilting Bee for a few months, but this is my second time joining. I used to participate a long time ago on another site. The community is great. It’s such a fun club where people who love cute things and pixels can get together. We trade patches on our quilts. There are also activities, about one a month. There’s an ongoing event at the moment where we decorate ornaments for a Christmas tree. There’s also an advent even going on where we can get a different patch each day.
The QBee is the original pixel-trading club and has been around for ages, but has recently been revamped by Jem and Bubs. The site got a facelift and some great new features. We have member profiles and an integrated bbs, which are both really neat features. The web has lost a lot of the cuteness it had a few years ago, but The Quilting Bee is still a great community for anyone who loves pixels.

I’m ready for the holidays…I have one final next week, just political science and then I’m done. I can’t wait to go home, but it looks like I won’t be able to until January. Don has to work throughout December and he’ll take off a week or so at the beginning of January so we can go home. I’m excited.

I’m usually skeptical of free online gaming websites, but recently I found a free backgammon game that I’ve been enjoying. It’s not just for advancer players, if you’re not really good at it, you can learn. They offer a free software you can play backgammon online. This website is not just about making money. The website is very user-friendly. I haven’t had any problems figuring out what I need.
There’s a lot of articles to help you learn and become a better player. They offer tutorials and tips that you normally don’t see on these type of websites. There’s a list of different moves so that if you’re a novice, you can learn how to do more complicated things so you can win. I used to play backgammon with my mom, but our games weren’t complicated. When I started using this website, I actually learned a lot. I learned what cooked dice are and I learned about the Crawford rule, which is one of my favorite’s. I also learned that there are many different types of backgammon, Turkish, Spanish etc. The rules are basically similar, but there’s little differences.
