OT Making you smarter by Polly Esther[_5_]
I am going to type this real slow so those of you who are not so bright will be able to grasp it. Making just a few tiny garments for expected great-grandbaby son, the serger was needed to make a dainty rolled hem edge. To do that, you Must remove the left needle. Unthreading said left-hand...

OT welcome sweet spring time by Polly Esther[_5_]
Yesterday we had flash floods with tornado warnings. Today, ta-dah! the robins arrived. Not 'our' robins - they always travel on to the north. They always come by in January after a hard rain. We think the wet pasture and orchard are better for finding unsuspecting tasty worms and such. So....

How to transfer appliqué design to dark fabric by Trish Brown
I've done this a million times on light fabric, but suddenly I want to mark some dark forest green fabric with a complicated (celtic knot-like) appliqué design. The fabric's too dark to see through it on a light box and the design area is quite large (about A3 size). I thought this would be...

OT -- new printer by Mary
My printer died recently, and even my friend the computer geek said it was beyond repair, so after hearing about new printer issues on the newsgroup I was dreading getting a new one. Well, it had to be done, so I went out to Best Buy and picked up an HP Photosmart, which is sold to be wireless...

Another UFO bites the dust. by Rose in CA[_3_]
I started this one in 2006. I bought a couple of yards of the fabric in the center because it was a map of Upstate NY and the Adirondack Mountains. I gave a half yard to each of my 2 DDs, DSis, DM and DSIL. The challenge was that we would all make something special and report back the next summer....

OT - on the death of my beloved mother by Ursula Schrader
I would like to thank all of you who sent their sympathy to me and my family on the death of my mother. I cannot say how much I miss her already. Tears do well up occasionally but I can't mourn properly yet. I guess it will be a lot of sad moments with tears over the coming years, rather than a...

OT -- flavored water by Mary
I had some house guests who arrived with a CASE of those plastic bottles of flavored water, and when they left they didn't take what remained, so I have almost more than half a case of that stuff -- which I do not like to drink. Neither do my neighbors. So, rather than just keep storing it and...

Singer 6235 by Gen
Does anyone have this machine? I was at my neighbors today helping her on her first quilt. She has this machine, and do I ever like it. She wasn't sure what all it can do, so I played a lot. It is the easiest machine I've ever used for FM--I fell in love with it. I'd happily trade my new...

Sort of OT by Mary
I also apologise for cross posting. No apology necessary for cross-posting such an important message! As to what to do about "sewgirls", I like the idea of putting copyright notices on things! Then, if they continue, can we find an attorney who is a fan of needlework who would threaten and...

Complete OT - Anne McCaffrey by Donna in Idaho[_3_]
I know there used to be other rctq'ers that were big Anne McCaffrey fans (she wrote the Dragonriders of Pern series as well as several other series - all good). I just found out that Anne passed away in November from a stroke. The world has lost an incredible author. She was my favorite author...

slow and steady wins the race -- not OT by Rose in CA[_3_]
Way back at the dawn of time (2004, actually) a large group of RCTQrs had a mini round robin swap. There were 5 quilters in each group and there were 4 USA only groups, one USA/Canada group and one International only group -- for easy of mailing, not discrimination :-) Yesterday I finished mine...
