Pattern problem -- I need someone who can think better than me by
Violet \F'loonslayer\ Volfie
I found a nice little site that has a BoTM for free on it. The problem is,
I can't print out the pattern so I've been drafting up the blocks from the
instructions. I'm having a problem figuring out one piece of the pattern
and I need someone who thinks more mathematically than I do to tell me if...

I just switched my internet service to a wireless internet provider only to
find out that they don't provide newsreader service. So, I downloaded
Forte-Agent thinking I could use that. Well! It wants the info about my
new internet provider and then tells me that it doesn't work (in their...

Friendship Quilt by
Tamara
I am a member of a mini group. One of the members will be moving in 5
months or less. We'd like to make her a quilt. I was wondering besides
the friendship star what other type of block could be use as we want to
sign the center of the block we make. As of right now we want to make
it a two...

My day at the quilt-a-thon by
Julia Altshuler
I met a woman at the opening reception of a quilt show last week and
liked her. A friend who also knows her knew that she was organizing a
quilt-a-thon through her congregation and invited me to come. I jumped
at the chance. A quilt-a-thon is an organized event in which volunteers
show up with...

Quilt backing by
Robin
Has anyone tried making a quilt back from scraps? What I'm thinking of would, more or less, be a crazy quilt on one side and different block patterns on the other side. If you have tried this, how did it work out? Too many seams, too much bulk? Or was it okay?
Thanks!

Looking for bird pattern and Nightmare fabric -- any ideas? by
\Pussywillow\ Volfie
I'm looking for a pattern I saw quite a bit a year or so ago: it's a whacky
looking bird with long legs and in each panel of the quilt, the position of
the legs are slightly different. (The body of the bird was sort of
tear-drop shaped, IIRC.) When I saw it, the background fabric was black and
the...

Sunbonnet Sue gone bad by
Debi Matlack
In regards to this swap, have you seen the quilt at The Quilt Index? It's
called "The Sun Sets on Sunbonnet Sue" and it has Sue offing herself or
being sent to meet her Maker in many ways. Macabre, but funny.

Rotary Cutter Case Pattern (ISO) by
Diana Curtis
Does anyone know of a rotary cutter case pattern that is free online? I have
googled but what comes up is patterns for eye glass cases which are made
using a cutter. It needs to hold both the 45mm and the 30?mm at the same
time. Ideally it will be a pieced and quilted case, just to justify...

new scrap project by

The Black Hole scrap basket is nearing critical mass, time to do a crazy
quilt. After the thread on wallpaper quilting, I decided to do this just a
bit differently than before. I cut 6" squares of batting scraps. Then laid
out fabric scraps on top of them in a random collage to cover all...

scrap quilt question by
Helen in MN
I have a lot of long strips from about 5 years of quilting. They are a
mixture of traditional, moda-style, and batiks- no 30's repros though. I
will leave out the kids prints.
I'm thinking there's enough for me to just start making log cabin blocks.
Will it drive me crazy if I mix all these...

looking for old watercolor pattern by

When watercolor kits first became available there was a kit with a
watercolor background and three black silhouetted crosses appliqued
onto the background. Does anyone else remember this kit or am I

reward. If anyone can send me in the...
