"I was born that way, I can't change by
Carolyn McCarty[_2_]
Discrimination by an ignorant society.
The vast majority of the articles in "Male Intergenerational
Intimacy"
argue that pedophilia should be freed from categorization as child
abuse. In the foreword, Dr. Gunter Schmidt closes by saying that
"Each
individual case must be looked upon on its own...

"Kids Can Quilt" by
M Rimmer
My children, especially my 7-year-old daughter but also my 5-year-old
son, love sewing. So when I spotted a book in the school book fair

off with a couple of simple piecing...

"New" sewing machine....... by
Pati Cook
Well, I did it. Bought another sewing machine. For a good cause. It is
a Singer Stylist, but does need a "gear replaced" (??) I only paid $10
for it, no extra pattern disks but it looks like a good machine.

rummage sale today...

"noodles" by
KJ
At our guild auction, I bought a bag of 11 sets of "noodles". These are
2.5" strips of various fabrics that were bundled with 4 strips per "set". I
seem to remember a book that was out a while ago that had fabric "noodle" as

The color picture shows it in black and goldy-beige. While I'm not a
regular embroidery person, this quilt is really speaking to me. I'd
love to hear comments from...

I've got a few quilts on my 'once in my lifetime' list to piece. A

"Quickie" Quilt by
Tia Mary
Hi Guys,
Well, I'm off to make what I call a "Quickie" quilt. I have three
very dear friends with whom I "hang out" and I have made quilts for two
of them. Val & Marsha already have quilts -- probably because they were
easy to make quilts for. Val likes "splotchy" fabrics and Marsha is a
bear...

"Quilt in a Day"...Great service! by
Chipper
I ordered fabric from the "Quilt in a Day" site on April 6th, and I'm
playing with it at this very moment! I'm impressed! I didn't expect to see
it till later next week. The fabric came neatly packaged, (all 18 yds of
it!), with a little heart shaped "I love quilts" nail file. (How did...

Got an offer yesterday for Quilt magazine. I've never heard of it. Six

"Red" Work Embroidery by
Pat in Virginia
It is nice to have a hand project to take to meetings and such. For quite a
while I've had a plan to work on "Red" work squares. Mine will feature green
thread, though, because I will be stitching foliage. I did try to start this
but did not like how the fabric (plain muslin) took to the...

"Redwork" Embroidery Blocks by

Well, I've decided to start some 'red work' blocks so I
will have a neat project to carry around. I will just
make them until I have enough for a project, or until
it makes me nuts (if that happens) ... whichever comes
first. I will be using green floss for these first
blocks which will have a...

Several weeks ago I posted a link to a picture of the Sew Spoiled (cat
wrapped around sewing machine) wall hanging I was working on, asking
for quilting suggestions from the RCTQ group. I used several of the
