I've had the slipping walking foot problem and it sure was frustrating. I've solved the problem by moving the needle position as far right as it would go. This lets both feed dogs have the same amount of fabric to grab. On one project, changing the needle position did not completely solve the...

Just wanted to let anyone who might be wondering know that the Quilter's Cache server crashed last night. They've been trying to reset the server and get the site back up but have been unsuccessful so far. Marcia is aware of the situation and is working to get everything back up and running as...

My dear friends- Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! It's the warmest, coziest, sweetest feeling imaginable to find a stack of get well cards and squishies from all over the world every day in the mail! You quilters are just the bestest and I thank each of you from my heart for taking the time...

Mary, I tried to reply to your email to thank you for the information, but it bounced. Not a problem -- but thanks so much! I never thought to do a search there. :) -- Sandy in Henderson, near Las Vegas sfoster 1 (at) embarqmail (dot) com (remove/change the obvious) http://www.sandymike.net

Can you recommend your favorite Scrap Quilt book (we could include FQ quilts too). Tell me why you like it. I have a BOATLOAD of scraps and FQ's and am so NOT a scrap quilt person, I like them well enough, but have a very VERY hard time letting go and not just let loose enough to not be...

My sweet little Scraps (12 year old tabby) has been losing weight steadily over the last few weeks. We took her to the vets this week and they did all kinds of blood work, x-rays and urinalysis. She doesn't have diabeties, thyroid, kidney or liver diseases. Her spleen is a bit enlarged but...

Got a question for you guys. If the piece of work is mounted on canvas, is it still a quilt? Sunny

Hello Everyone: Sorry I haven't been very active in this group lately. I have been very busy and have had some ongoing health problems. Hopefully I will be able to participate more frequently from now on. I just posted some new pictures on:

I need a sturdy ironing board. I do not want the big board. I have tried those, and don't like it. I need something that will be sturdy on thick carpet. DH & I had all our flooring replaced last year. I didn't want carpet in any room, and he wanted it in all the bedrooms and the den. We...

Has any one used this thread for piecing? It is much cheaper then others and was wondering how much lint went with it. Thanks, Judy

Hello all. Life really does get busy sometimes, but I actually stole a few minutes over the long weekend to piece some scrappy siggy blocks together. It felt so good. Even though my whole sewing/quilting space/stuff is a nightmare of a disaster area, I forced myself to overlook the mess and...

Hi Guys, I got the Pirate fabric from H of P over the weekend and it is great! The pirates look a lot like the one from the movie and the one that I thought looked the Captain Jack Sparrow is just perfect! I got the SMDGD's measurements from DD and will probably start the sun dress...

Hi all: I've been busy for a while and haven't written but I had a few minutes so thought I'd pop in. I have been busy hand painting fabric and making quilts, regular, Landscapes and scenics. Dogs especially. You can see it all here. http://www.handpainted.moonfruit.com

http://www.diaperfreebaby.org/ this sounds amazing to me but i wish i'd known of it when my kids were little. think of all the money you'd save... no disposables to add to the huuuuuge rubbish landfill. no excess cleaning products for the waterways or ground to deal with. do your bit for global...

My friend mis-cut her fabric for a quilt. She asked me on the phone how to use what she has to make it work - but, naturally smaller. The quilt called for strips to be cut 3" wide and 2" wide. She cut all her strips 2" wide. She's thinking if she made the blocks smaller and used the 2" strips...
