I will miss Carol's sense of timing and humor in the newsletter as I always looked forward to her introduction to the new session. Since I found QU I had a goal of taking every class, but did not come close to accomplishing this. I am saddened that QU will not continue and wish there was some manner in which it could. The outreach it has had and the people it has brought together over the years has been incredible. She will be sorely missed and I can only offer my condolences to her wonderful family as they loaned her to us through QU.

Oh, what a loss! She truly made a difference to so many lives, not many people can say that they really earned their little bit of space on this earth, but Carol surely did. My sincere condolences to all of her family and friends. Jane Templeman, UK

I am late sending this message, but only just heard of the passing of Carol. Quilt University is such a wonderful online resource for all of us who love textiles, and Carol made it so special. My heart goes out to her family, and all the other QU tutors who worked with Carol over the years.

What a beautiful lady-I am saddened to hear of her death. I have been a student of QU for many years, always enjoying the classes, and loved the newsletters Carol sent out. She will be missed. She thought of a great enterprise and it grew by leaps and bounds to bless her deeply. She was one special lady--and that will carry on thru all of Gods Worlds. God Bless her family.

My sincere sympathy to Roger and family. Every month (and then twice a month!) when the QU newsletter arrived, I saved it to read when I had time to savor every word. What a bright spot in a hectic world. I never met Carol, but a friend has been lost. How very short life is. God Speed.

Brenda Dennis

I typically don't read newsletters but when the QU newsletter hit my inbox I was always anxious to see what Carol had to say. I was very sadden when I received that newsletter this morning. In the past I had copied and pasted her wonderful words to try to help encourage others as she did me. I have never met Carol but I have taken many classes at QU and learned from her and the other teachers. May you rest in peace Carol and I know your family, friends and QU students will miss you deeply!

Carol's beginner quilting class on QU got me started in quilting 10 years ago and it has turned into a wonderful hobby. I'm sure there are many older women like me whose lives have been very enriched by what she started. Blessings to her family.

I have taken several Quilt University courses over several years. The fact that the classes are available 24/7 is what enables this highly nocturnal quilter to take classes I would never have had access to otherwise. A very sad lost for the quilting world.

Carol taught a quilt class in my guild several years ago. It was a lively and informative class, but the project is still in my UFO pile (Un Finished Object.) I've been meaning to finish it up this year. I'll hold kind thoughts for Carol as I work through that mini quilt project. Warm condolences to her family.

"My deepest condolences to Carol's family and friends. I've known Carol for many, many years via the Internet. I've also interviewed her and helped spread the word about Quilt University in various magazine articles and books when QU first started and throughout the years. I was very saddened to learn of her passing. She will be missed more than my words can adequately express.

February 26, 2013

Carol was the best boss I have ever had. I am so glad I told her that...often, actually..because she was. Without a doubt.

I taught at QU for almost the entire time of its existence. Carol mentored me as a businesswoman and especially as a teacher. She more than once set me straight; she counseled me; she told me the truth- always. I have kept many of her emails that contained such a wealth of wisdom about how to handle people- especially "difficult" people. She always protected me and expected the best from me. I called her "da bomb" because she was. Thank you, Carol. You da bomb.

Kristin Farwig

I am so sorry to hear that Carol died. I still can't believe it. It is such a shock. I have taken many Quilt University classes since 2006, including one taught by Carol (and I would have taken more of her classes). I learned so much from all of the classes I took. I did not know her personally but I feel like she was a friend. She was always very encouraging. It is a wonderful organization, and I cannot praise it highly enough. QU offers a broad range of classes taught by many talented teachers. The whole design of the site is very user friendly and I don't recall ever having a problem with any aspect of QU. Not only was Carol very knowledgeable about quilting, she was an innovator in creating QU. She was a tireless administrator behind the scenes, posting the many student submitted photos for the many classes going on concurrently. I'm sure I don't know just how much work was involved! She was also very gracious and timely in answering emails. I signed up for a class this past summer, and a few days later I broke my wrist. I knew that I would not be able to do the class work, and I asked for and received a refund, as well as several nice emails from Carol. Many organizations would not have been so generous. I really appreciated her kindness. She regularly checked the main discussion forum and offered her help to the many students who posted questions. I have the utmost respect for her. Through QU, she made a huge contribution to the world of quilting. Carol created an international quilting community through QU, and she will be sincerely missed by people from all over the world. I will miss her. I'm sorry I didn't get to take more of her classes.
