Hi! I was asked to write a glossary for a friend's latest quilting book. The book is due out on April 12 but last night the publisher let us know that they are going to also do an e-book download version that is on sale starting today. So, I'm here to brag that I'm sort of published :-) The...

This afternoon before the storm I had to bury 5 of Miss Lucy's kittens. She had six. She let me pick up the only survivor. She only leaves the kitten to feed or go outside. When she comes into the living room while the kitten sleeps she just wants to be held. I feel so sad for my little lady. ...

I guess that this means either well-used or newly acquired helpful hint that you might have found useful in your quilty life! I was reading a page of hints on one of the bunnyhop pages recently - this hint stood out! I have always had a problem with threads strangling the vacuum beater bar - the...

Just thought I'd share with you tonight's magic. The crib quilt underway is appliquéd horses. There's a black horse (with polka dots, naturally), a brown horse (with fuzzy fat bees), and a white horse (this one is Michael Miller's fairy frost sparkling snow). Of course, the quilt needed a...

In the midst of bustleing around this morning to make sure every reletive on the planet knows Ash is a ginger man tonight, plus all the other attendant holiday madness, I got a phone call that made me just drop everything and light a cigarette while contemplating rum before noon. We are going to...

I just got back from taking my wife to the dentist where she had some oral surgery done on both sides of her mouth. My day will consit of changing out the mouthwash spittoon and feeding her vicodin. The poor girl is so out of it, she really dosen't know what is going on. The whole house is torn up...

The "Do Not Call" Register opened today. Supposedly you can register online to exclude your phone number from all those annoying telemarketing lists. Yippee!! Of course (and most unfortunately) the DNC will not apply to charities/educational facilities(?)/political candidates - but it's a...

Has anyone seen this gorgeous collection? You can see it on p.92 of the Dec Quilters Newsletter magazine but I can't find it in any of the LQS. Jan

What kind of thread do you use and what kind of stitch... blanket or hidden? I'm hoping to at least wash the fabric today. -- Mary http://community.webshots.com/user/mardor1948

In another post, someone asked about making a velveteen quilt, all the comments were quite helpful. However, about 15-20 years ago in one of the "ladies" magazines, not a quilting magazine, there was the most gorgous quilt that I believe was out of velveteen. It was a log cabin pattern and I'm...

Hi all! Announcing our new granddaughter! Baby Cadence arrived by C-section at 5:30 this afternoon. Weighing 7 lbs and is 18 cm long. No pics yet, hopefully tomorrow! They haven't decided about 2nd names yet. Cadence is the 4 child for this son. The other 3 are boys. Another one of our boys is...

Hi, I'm in a quandry and thought maybe one of you would know. I picked up Mom's Pfaff 2124 and took it to the local Pfaff shop hoping they would take it on consignment and sell it for me so I wouldn't have to fly it back home with me. The woman there curtly informed me that it was the worst machine...

Hello everyone! Wow, it's been a long time since I've been on RCTQ and it's so nice to see so many familiar faces. A lot has been going on in my life, but I think it's finally calmed down enough to begin regularly reading once more. I've got a lot to catch up on. I've done a bit of quilting, and...

I have found a way to do a small project that will gain you some confidence in free motioning. My greatest shame is that I'm scared to free motion- dropping the feed-dogs terrifies me with the mere thought of it! There.... I've admitted it! So, I forced myself to do some small free motion...
