OT last blast of winter? by
shhdesigns
Hi everyone
We usually have very mild temperatures on the west coast of Canada and
little snow. Last week we had a blast of snow and became the laughing stock
of Canada with pictures of cars sliding down hills on the cross Canada
newscasts.
Everything then turned sunny and stayed below 0C for...

NanaV
Next Thursday, February 3, at 10 PM (this is in NY so check your listings)
there is a program on channel 13. It is the story of the Gees Bend Quilts

Labels question by
handmaiden
Ok, I know I really ought to label my quilting, but I really don't know
what the daylights to put on it. I don't have access to a nice
embroidery machine and I'm afraid the fabric markers will fade out. What
do you use/suggest? Is there an inexpensive service to get custom
embroidered labels?...

MQ tension! by
Charlie
I have just sat down to quilt my first quilt. Invisible thread in the top
and Gutterman in the bottom (polyester, this isn't a heirloom quilt and I
have a broken toe so can't get to the shops!). But, whatever tension
setting I put the machine on (from extremely low to extremely high) the
bottom...

Exploded view of walking foot? by
Liz & Allan MacDonald
Well, yes, I've discovered all the bits inside it. And no, I didn't
take it apart step by step. It kinda slipped and fell apart.
I always take things apart if they're not working properly. The walking
foot seemed to be binding slightly. The arm that hooks on the needle
clamp didn't move...

Miniature Quilts by
Joan8904
Mom has decided that she wants to make a yo-yo quilt to fit a miniature brass
bed. And I do mean MINIATURE. So far I've collected two beds--one 5x6", the
other 2x3". So while she does that, I'd like to surprise her with a bed with a
pieced quilt. I'm thinking that foundation piecing is the way...

o/t the great washing machine mystery by
Morag in Oxford
evening ladies,
I have just spent 30 minutes on the kitchen floor wrestling with my washing
machine, draining the water out of it and getting soaked in the process.
This was all caused by a mangled object - most probably one of hubby's work
socks - wrapped all around the filter.
He hasn't...

4 inch block ideas by
Audrey
I am looking for ideas or patterns for 4 inch blocks of numerous fabrics. I
must be addicted to e-bay purchases of this size block. (it was almost as
much fun as quilting) Any suggestions for projects other than joining them
together in rows? thank you in advance.

don't have a quilt that I made for myself and about half of the ones I've
given as gifts ended up being tossed in a closet* or the owner turns on me
