successful Spirit of life party by
simpleseven
I threw a spirit of life party for my beloved DH, Terry yesterday.
I've never been to one, and have only attended a few funeral services,
so I didn't really know what I was doing or what to expect.
All in all I think it was a great success, despite the miserable
downpour we were having all day. ...

Pet peeve: shipping time by
TinaR
I got a snippy email today from an online retailer when I complained
about how long it was taking my order to get shipped (I understand
USPS/UPS delays - I only hold the etailer responsible for getting the
thing out the door and addressed correctly).
It has been a full week (I placed the order...

Kate T.
Are you all O.K. over there. I've been up for the last three nights
because of the storms. The news is reporting a lot of flooding from
Harrison County over to you.
Are you high and dry in that swamp or have the gators taken up
residence in your abode.
The rivers over here have not crested yet...

finding that I do better on paper...

Question for those who don't prewash by
Louise in Iowa[_6_]
I'll be making a quilt for my niece and her husband, and it will have a very
dark brown fabric in it. I prewash, and when I prewashed this fabric, I used
synthrapol (sp?). I then ran it through another wash with a color catcher,
which came out very dark brown. I did that about five more times...

OT silly scam about Yahoo email accounts by
Leslie& The Furbabies in MO.
I just received a 'scary' sounding email asking me to confirm my Yahoo email
account or it will be cancelled. It's obviously fake when you read thru the
message with care. The grammar and punctuation are sloppy and the wording
is in poor form. I know The Powers at Yahoo would take more care...

Cotton Theory quilting by
Trixie
Question for the group: I want to do a quilt (or two or......) using the
Cotton Theory quilting method. I have her book 2 "Traditional Blocks" from
the library. Has anybody seen both books and have an opinion about whether
it would be better to have book 1 or book 2?

Newbie ?s EQ6 color palettes by
[email protected]
I'm fairly new at designing quilts with EQ6 (spouse does the sewing).
First, I prefer using the color palette to the fabric palette, as I
can see the colors better (sometimes the fabric patterns get in the
way - that's just how my brain works...) and we never know what we'll
find when we go to...

OT - Prayers and good thoughts for Jeanne by
Jenn in Tacoma
I don't have any details, and she may kill me for doing this, but we
need to hold Jeanne up right now. Her youngest son has died suddenly.
Again, no details here, but we need to wrap her in love at this time.
I'm so sad for my dear friend.
