Hi!!! Nice to meet you - do I have to wave far? I'm here in Cornwall, UK! -- Janner "Quite often lately I have the feeling I don't know what's going on..." --- Snoopy!

I just got a catalog from Home-Sew and they carry the pens. They sell for $8.75, item number is N486 and their phone number is 1-800-344-4739. I checked the website (www.homesew.com) but couldn't find the pens on there at all. Larisa, NAYY

I've been trying to find a few minutes all day to write this note. No time on my lunch hour, and no breaks, so it will be brief. Just wanted to say that I am often amazed by the talent of the women on this group. There are so many of you...talented in your quilting, talented in other ways. And...

Bargello - is it pronounced barjello or bargello? earthmagic, just wondering in oz

Does anyone know of a permanent pen that can be used on dark fabric?? I am making a jazz quilt for SO who is a musician, and want to use some of his original compositions in a few blocks. My background fabric is a deep blue salt batik. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Gail Jas

Hello folks, I have issue 88 of Quiltmaker magazine, and it contains part 3 of the America the Beautiful Quilt which I believe was made by our own Mickie Swall. :) After looking at the pattern, I'm sure I have enough of the right sort of fabrics in my stash, and I'd like to have a go at it. My...

Anyone know of an easy quilt pattern that is really fancy? that looks really hard to do.. but in fact its easy as pie?

I bought a used Bernina 830 several years ago and it is an absolute workhorse. Sews and sews and sews. It also MQs in every direction with only a rare missed stitch when I'm going backwards (that was a major problem with my previous machine). The only thing that fooled me was that I had to buy a...

Ok. I'll be there. What time is good for you? ;) (I wish) -- LN in NH a crazy quilter * hand quilter * & hand appliquér all in all --- a very slow quilter.... So send quilts! http://photos.yahoo.com/lns_obsessed "Jalynne" wrote in...

If you are creating a quilt that you hope will hold its beauty a long time, you may want to consider this quote in QNM Oct 03. "...the chemical composition of the adhesives used in these quilting products generally is not identified nor has their long-term performance been evaluated...decisions...

I just put up a picture on my site of my newest finished quilt. Click on the URL below for my website. It will take you to the home page, then click on the date to see the quilt. I also have a favor to ask of you. I bought a sewing machine in a cabinet today, at a thrift store, for $15. I...

Hi, My younger sister was in town briefly and stopped by my place. Of course my dining room table had my huge cutting mat and quilty stuff covering it. She starts asking me questions about quilting. She had just bought a sewing machine and a book and fabric for a quilt. (She is...

I am so tardy in thanking all of you for your cards, my crazy quilt blocks, your notes and prayers, it sure helped and I am getting around reasonalby well. Good enough to get up and down the stairs to work on my project, that I have to hand to some one this Sunday. As soon as it is done, I'll get...

I have just heard on CNN about a young lady making quilts to comfort the families of war dead. This made me so proud and it touched me very deeply, I still have tears in my eyes. Her name is Jessica Porter from Tampa Florida. I saw several quilts that she made with a lot of other quilters and...

Some of you may remember that I asked about a library quilt project on this forum some time ago, and Mickie, who was involved in the project I had read about, gave me lots of information. The superiors at my DD's library have not embraced the idea with enthusiasm, in fact, the attitude has been...

Has anyone used these? I've just done a bit of reading about them, and they sound really interesting -- especially for someone like me who has limited space for a design wall. Comments? -- Sandy in Henderson, near Las Vegas http://home.earthlink.net/~s_foster

I would post it here, never know who may come to WA just for the show! Debbi in SO CA "Suequiltmail" wrote in message ... Hi, I contacted the website (I thought, but haven't heard a reply) about protocol for e-mailing...

Thank you all for being so kind on this group (definitely the best group I subscribe to). Here's the news: North Central Washington Quilt Guild of Wenatchee (that's in the middle of the state, BTW), is having their 19th Annual Harvest of Quilts show: September 19, 10AM - 7 PM ...
