Darn you, Polly Esther by
teleflora
Don't mention another word about stuff going wrong!
I came home Sunday from 3 days at a convention at Lake of the Ozarks, to a
clogged up dryer vent! There wasn't much danger of fire, though. The mess
was soaking wet. DD was trying to do laundry and it had taken 3 hours to
dry a load of...

Quilt Show in Kalamazoo, Michigan by
Gothikka
Well, it's in Portage, actually, but that's close enough.:) I know
there are a few RCTQ'ers from Michigan and thought that it may be of
interest, even though it is probably on a smaller scale than many of
you are used to.

machine quilting historically that is... by
Taria
Take a look:
http://hartcottagequilts.com/his9.htm
When you look at history of machine quilting it goes back
longer than you might think.
I am kind of partial to the frame that hangs from the
ceiling myself. Maybe there is something to go from with
that idea.

Guild Practice by
teleflora
Before I go off the deep end (as I have been ever known to do), I thought
I'd ask around here and see if any of you have heard of this.
About 6 months ago, our guild board decided to put a new clause in our
contract with speakers/presenters. We voted on it and it passed. I must
have voted for...

overseas subscriptions by
Morag in Scotland
As the pound is quite strong against the dollar at the moment it is actually
cheaper for me to subscribe to an American/Canadian quilt magazine than a UK
one.
So, any recommendations? I'm looking for something with lots of ideas and
projects, from beginner level up. Something easy to read and...

Finished -- whew! by
Sandy
I don't plan ever to make another quilt with this technique. :S I loved
the pattern, but I didn't like making it, and I detest what happens to
it when it's washed! Here's the background: I took a class from Joan
Shay (Petal Play person) at camp in 2006. She's a real kick -- lots of
fun -- and...

Sewing machine table ideas by
John
Here is an idea for you who are considering converting various types
of furniture into sewing machine tables. If you go to most any home
center, they will have a number of interior plywood doors for sale
that have smooth surfaces. They are available in a number of widths,
and grades of beauty. One...

Alrighty, I thought some of you might get a teeny giggle out of this (and
some of ya'll will feel sorry for Buddy the Wonderdog).
I've given away most of my quilts - I've only kept a few that either have
special memories (like the one that I gave my Gramma before she passed away
and that she left...

A response to the news-server question by
Louise[_2_]
A while ago someone was asking about paid news server services,
because they were fed up with their ISP. At the time I couldn't
remember what the name of mine was or what it cost, because it's so
worry-free.
But since I just got my renewal notice, I can tell you that it's
news.individual.net. It...

This is the best group. I know I don't say much on here. After all, what

I just wanted you *all* to know that you always come through for me. Every
