Suggestions Needed by
C. Mathews
I need suggestions from the group.
Here is my dilemma.
I have fallen heir to some calico prints and want to make a scrappy quilt.
Keep in mind this is the first quilt of this type I have ever
attempted...and the only the second quilt made.
Does anyone have a favorite old/classic way to use up these...

New Serger by
Karen Novakoski
I am starting to look around at sergers. I may be in the market to actually
purchase a good used one or a decently priced new one. I would like to have
some "testimonials" on the sergers you own. What features do I need to look
for and what isn't necessary. I have a fairly new Viking sewing...

Everyone needs a quick project now and then.... by
Sandy Foster
Last spring I ran across a lovely preprinted panel of spring flowers and
things at a LQS here and couldn't resist buying it, though I haven't
often used preprinted things before. Over the long weekend, with DH away
at a golf tournament, I needed a quick project that wouldn't take much
thinking g,...

Fabric Folding Pen by
Monique Reed
A painted on starch solution will do the same thing if you press the

Insuring a queen sized quilt in Britain...would it need to be assessed by
size, or the amount of quilting, or the price the quilt maker has put on it?
Here's the tale...I made a queen sized patchwork quilt for my daughter's
forthcoming nuptials. It is machine pieced and machine quilted. She'll...

Eldrid
Hi
I am going to teach two workshops on photo-to-fabric in the course of the
next month, and I would like to include a list of litterature for further

Block Butler panels? by
Sandy Foster
Has anyone used these? I've just done a bit of reading about them, and
they sound really interesting -- especially for someone like me who has
limited space for a design wall. Comments?
