Hello, I want to do a tulip applique, or perhaps just a flower, using green, purple and a multi-coloured floral on cream. I'm stumped. I tried google, but only got pictures of quilts instead of actual applique designs for blocks. Does anyone have a good link for what I'm after?

I've just finished a quilt top that's hovering between double and queen, can't decide whether or not to an an extra side border both sides and make is usable on both, but that's beside the point, I'll be wanting to baste it fairly soon and I was wondering about using dream angel as it's for a...

I was just curious about the RCTQ directory ... is there some way to add my name/info to it? Or do I have to be invited? voted upon? Please forgive the questions and the duh-factor obvious in this post! :-) Thanks in advance! :-) Happy quilting!! Connie :-)

I have a habit (good or bad...) of clicking on some of the google group advertisements - this one is an interesting one with lots of possibilities for browsing the various topics - quilts among them but also there is a 'reading room' which lists worldwide news paper links. The quilts link to...

The Warm Company who makes Warm & Natural cotton batting has a new batting that is made from Plantation Trees (what ever those are) and this batting is supposed to be flame retardant. One of these battings has come to me with a commissioned quilting project, and I'm curious to know if any of you...

I don't know if this has happened to anybody else, but Google, or some malevolent force, has eatten a number of my replies to postings on this forum over the last few days. They show as "successful" and then never show up. I know that they often take awhile but 3-4 days? As they used to say back in...

Howdy folks! It has been awhile since I posted to the group... years even? I sure have missed you, but just had too much on my plate to participate. To be honest, a lot has happened since my last lurk... and unfortunately, quilting was not part of the happenings. The short of it is: 1. My mom...

After Suzanne Rose was born, I was trying to decide what kind of quilt to make her when I remembered a quilt kit I bought a few years ago. I bought it because it made such a beautiful display on my antique sewing machine. It was fabric from P&B's Rosewater collection. The main fabric looked like a...

I am getting ready to start on "Clowning Around" version 2. You can see it he http://quarterinchpublishing.com/patterns_favorites.htm Due to arthritic hands, I want to do this on the machine. Does anyone have advice on how to make the stitching look as nice as the sample? I have not done...

Actually taken a decent photo of the Forest Baby Quilt for the Bird Reserve Warden's baby due in October. DH (the ornithologist) wanted me to use 'grown-up' pictures, not cartoons, and complained that the animals have human eyes, as it was human eyes or cartoons, the eyes won! Hopefully...

I was so saddened by the event especially since I worked in the area as a teenager just out of high school. My daughter and son in law lost many friends there. A story to tell you: Some firemen went up in one of the buildings and proceeded to bring down one woman. She wanted to give up at a...

I have been trying to get back to read the ng, but I am getting access to fewer and fewer posts each day. Some of the threads have been a bit hard to follow as I only get the first and last entries, and in between everything has changed lol Stitching life here continues as always - ...

I hope I'm not bein' out of line here ... but I was wonderin' if I could put a link to your site on my blog? I'm big into awesome causes and considerin' that I'm a huge doggie lover (no, not like THAT - I bet you hear that all the time, don't you? Sorry, couldn't resist), it'd mean a lot to...
