more Scrappy September Mystery Quilt by
Kay Ahr
I got the blocks sewn together this past weekend. Next weekend I'll
get the borders on. You can see what I've done so far at
http://photos.yahoo.com/kayahr.
I think it's kind of pretty. I'm itching to get those leftover green
squares in the middle border.

OT Nifty home science project by
NightMist
If you have kids and a kitchen and steady nerves, home science
projects can be fun.
Of course if you also have a DH whose childhood aspiration was to
become a mad scientist, it can also be hazardous to your kitchen.
Which is why I like this project.
Nothing to blow up, minimal chance of setting...

Jeanne by
Don/Gen
We got Jeanne on a bus early this morning, so she's on her way to Paulette's
in WV---should arrive about 4 PM. She certainly improved the welfare of
Columbus and Grove City, and depleted several fabric shops! She finally
begged me not to take her to any more, and we still had 4 left to get...

Quilty visit with Mom by
Debra
Mom and I don't get much time to visit anymore, so when we do we each
have to show the other what fun thing we are working on, or planning.
Yesterday when I arrived at her place she had a nice set of 7 or 8
fabrics and a book out showing the quilt she is planning to make. We
both agree that one...

Really big big thankyou by
Cats
Quite some time ago I posted asking for the pack details of
Colour Catchers so I could get our local supermarket to get

template site by
Boca Jan
I found this really great site for non-slip aluminum templates for about any
shape you can think of. I think the prices are in the ball park and the
various shapes come in a variety of sizes. It is an interesting site to
check out. Just think, any piece can now be cut with a rotary...

I just finished my second hand-pieced, hand-quilted quilt!! I would have
finished months ago, but I had to wait until after thumb surgery before I

normal, I started a blue string quilt and a candlewicking quilt. You...
