Coil Bowl Step By Step by
Liz & Allan MacDonald
Good afternoon all,
I've put a series of pictures up on webshots showing step by step the
process of making a coil bowl.
They're carefully hidden in the album titled Coil Bowl How-To.
I just finished loading them, so give it a few minutes.
Liz (Bwahahaha - you'll all be addicted....)

work on this simple block as part of your Easter...

So how to you tell? by
Marcella Peek
Ok, again we have the fabric quality question and over and over I see
posts that say "you can get good fabric anywhere you just need to know
good fabric"
Well sheesh, if the person asking knew how to tell quality fabric they
likely wouldn't have to ask. So...

So DH will be in the States in April for one week and I'd like him to
bring me some magazines :-)

I prefer traditional quilts or even paper pieced stuff, but I'm not so

)
And where can you buy those...

Dallas quilt Show review by
Bob & Kathleen
I was really impressed with the show. It is the first time for DH and I
to go to that particular show. We were exhausted after leaving. Saw
great quilts, many that I admired, some more than others. The Best of
Show was truly magnificent. Hand-dyed fabric, hand appliqued and hand
quilted. DH carried...

found quilt blocks by
Iowan1999
Just a funny story. I finally cleaned my craft room and found 23 pink log
cabin blocks that i had made and I don't even remember piecing them. I know
I did them, because there is a paper with notes in my handwriting.
Could I be quilting in my sleep?
Everyone have a great quilting day.

Stash will be guarded by 3 feline QIs, one of whom likes hamburger, one

UPDATE - Crestfallen No Longer!!! by
Melissa in NJ
Well I have an update. All day long I was feeling lower than blue. My DH was
mad. I was feeling resigned. But I just couldn't get past it and asked my
husband to read the rules objectively. I had been trying to all night. He
said that at best that they were ambiguous. He could see why I had...

Sizing v. Starch by
joan8904 in Bellevue Nebraska
I have cans of both and have discovered that I really like the sizing
when working with bias cuts in blocks. What is the difference between
the two? I seem to remember someone on Simply Quilts saying that you
should use starch, as sizing just doesn't work. Or maybe it was the
other way...
