Those Flying Geese by [email protected]
Hello All, I did some testing on making flying geese. I first used 3 7/8th and found the line did not match on the geese wing piece's so you do have to use 2 1/2, 3 1/2 and etc. I also tried different background fabrics and found that Kona fabric was the best and you can buy it at JoAnn's...

Bear Mountain Quilt by [email protected]
Am I the only one that has these bad days where everything you do is wrong? I got my two different blocks done and the blocks that I did the applique on gave me the beginning of my problems. The applique made them shrink so when I put the two blocks together I am short by say 2/8 inch. Have you...

I just finished a quicky quilt, one of those no brainer kind. It was called Curves and Steps. You just cut 5 1/2 x 10 1/2 inches rectangles, then take 5 strips of 2 1/2 inch and sew them together(I did change the strips around from row to row) and cut them 5 1/2 inches. Those two sections are...

NuStyle quilting machine by [email protected]
My wife has a chance to buy a used Nustyle model 228 quilting machine, about 10 years old. The price is good, but I'm wondering if anyone has any good, or bad opinions on it. She is a home user, and is doing this for a hobby. We do not need a production machine. Thank you. Ed

Ohio Star and Snails Trail Done by [email protected]
The Ohio Star quilt turned out really good and fast since it had 15 inch blocks. Then I started Snails Trail or a version of it. It has been called Galaxy and Andromedia too so don't really know the original version. It is a very colorful quilt, just lots of bright colors. Wish I could take a...

The Ohio Star Quilt by [email protected]
I finished my Paisley Churn Dash quilt and had a problem when putting it together. The blue I had made the Churn Dash blocks did not go at all with the Paisley material so I remade those blocks using gold mottled and green. So then brought more material for the blue Churn Dash blocks, so got it...
