Mailing squishie problems. by The Laws
Someone recently said she got a torn envelope with a squishie inside. The envelope looked like it was torn when it went through the cancellation machine. I have gotten one of those too, and it barely made it as the address was almost torn away. So when sending some Hug blocks, I cut 2 5x8 file...

Google by quilter
Is anyone else having trouble with Google digests? Unless you ladies have been VERY quiet lately, something's wrong...I haven't gotten any digests in days. How am I supposed to get through a work day without digests? Lynn

Rallying UK Quilters! by Sally Swindells
On 'This Morning' television they had...and I couldn't believe my eyes.... a Craft Competition! This was the first heat (Northern), and it had been slimmed down to three people (one willow weaver, one felt-maker and one quilter) who were then voted on by the viewers. And guess who won the heat -...

Thanks For Anniversary Good Wishes by R. E. Wicker
Hi! I am so grateful to all of you who cared enough to drop a line. I want to report on my shopping trip. Could not find the deep brown in Orthopedic shoes or even shoes with arch support, so I came home and ordered from a spot on line. This could be great, interesting or a disaster. But my...

S.E.X. and housework! And a few good healing wishes needed. by Kate Dicey
Love S.E.X, hate housework! Did the first yesterday (I was in Tunbridge Wells, buying wedding dress and bridesmaid fabric with a client, and picked up a few FQ's for squishing with), and need to pay for it by doing the second today! Mind you, as I'm planning to tidy up the sewing room after...

Thimbles by Patti S
I need some thimble recommendations. I love doing hand work, and am actually working on a project right now that uses lots of blanket stitching. Trouble is, my finger gets so sore that I have to quit. I bought one of those fancy, custom made silver thimbles a while ago, but (even though it's custom...

Anyone tried this book? by joysjane
3 + 5 1/2 = Quilts? I was just wondering if it was worth the hefty price for such a small book. But we were talking about what to do with scraps and just wanted to know if anyone had this book. Just saw it today and thought it looked interesting, but pricey. Martha

Want some squares? florida, zebras, jaguars by quilter
Hi all. A few weeks ago, I acquired an interesting set of about 175 6 inch squares at a quilty fundraising event. They feel like cotton (and were bought at a quilt museum, so I assume they were meant for quilting), but a little bit stiff, almost like batik or hand dyed, so I'm not sure if they...

We made a sandwich on my deck! by Debra
Well I tried to sandwich the Pebbles and Bam Bam lap quilt on the bed. Didn't work out quite right. The big fold out cardboard sewing thingie didn't make the bed flat and hard enough to make a good flat sandwich, so I spent a good amount of time basting with thread and needle only to find the...

Itsy-bitsy, teeny-tiny.... by Sandy Foster
Some of you may remember that I recently began hand piecing Quilted Diamonds from Linda Franz's second book. Part of the time while I was worrying about DT and DBIL the past few days, I was working on one of those blocks. This little 4" x 7" diamond block has *45* pieces!! Yikes! Forty of those are...

Wedding Anniversary-63rd by R. E. Wicker
I finally gave in the told hubby of 63 years that this was our Anniversary. He was angered because I hadn't told him. What are the rules? We aren't by law required to warn husbands, are we? Actually I had a busy day on Monday at Rehab and I have another hard day there tomorrow...and being taken...

"Birds in the Air" by [email protected]
I'm thinking about making a scrappy "Birds in the Air" quilt, inspired by a photo of one made around 1870. The blocks will be 6" or 9" and the background fabric unbleached muslin. I'm wondering if anyone has seen a different set for this block than just rows of blocks in the same orientation. ...

OT sort of/Feather Weight by [email protected]
My on line friend and I were talking about machines we have. I had got her into quilting just by talking about it to her over the net. Anyhow she mentioned her Janome and she was keeping her Kenmore for a backup and someday she will have her mom's treadle that she had bought for her mom and then...

Question for Carol Doak by Donna
Hi Carol, I saw a quilt in the Red River Quilters show in Shreveport and the info on the quilt named you as the source of the pattern. I have 2 of your books but couldn't figure out which block it was. It is also on your website in Show and Tell. I think it was the River Country Quilters quilt--3rd...

AC Moore by Pam in Spencerport
Anyone have an AC Moore store nearby? One is opening up here in a few days and I'm wondering what it is like. Do they carry fabric? I'm thinking it may be more like a Michaels than Joanne's.
