http://www.lazygirldesigns.com/blog/?page_id=806 There is a wealth of information as well as lots of pictures in Joan's blog. Her instructions and demonstration pictures are perfectly clear. Nothing is assumed. Which I appreciate even more now that I've made another tote bag from a pattern...

I think part of the reason we don't see much on card trick because Dorren Speckmann made the definitive card quick quilt.... http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/cr_quilting_blocks/article/0,1789,HGTV_3299_1389979,00.html Mauvice in Wi

I "think" I saw a recipe on here where you used a chocolate cake mix and a can of cherry pie filling, mix it together and bake. There were no other ingredients, if I remember correctly??? Did I remember correctly? TIA Leslie & The Furbabies in MO.

Well, after reading about how many were doing the Wonder Wallet, I figured I needed to get on the band wagon. I have ordered from Sew Thankful many times and since they had a discount on the pattern that is where I went. I just got an email from them that they are currently out of stock on this...

I am thinking of buying a Singer 20U73 commercial sewing machine for myself and I was wondering if anybody has had any experience with that particular model. This is the straight stitch/zig zag industrial model that allows you to control the width of the zig zag stitch with the knee lever as well...

DH and I will be in Phoenix Sept 30-Oct 5 but most of our time will be taken up with business and training. I think I will have some free time evenings of Oct 3 and 4. We're staying in the Glendale area. Would love a meet up at a quilt shop if there is one in the area. --...

Big day at my house -my new sewing table finally arrived!!! It's a Rauschenberger, German made. Lots of space, nice cabinet with drawers for all the doodads and thread, air lift. Cost half of what the local carpenter thought he could make for me, which didn't have the air lift. So I've been...

We just spent five days in Astoria, OR and travelled about from there each day. We had a wonderful time and I found some great shops! My favorite was Jane's in Tillamook, next was Creative Fabrics in Wheeler and then Homespun Quilts in Astoria. I brought home lots of fun fabrics and two...

My daughter would like to make her boyfriend a polar fleece blanket with the Army Logo. All she has found is the Air force. Any suggestions would be appreciated Audrey

so after all the good reports, I decided I had to try it, one of the issues I always have is gripping he fabric and the gloves I've tried so far haven't helped as much as I would like, but the press and seal was like magic - I could see myself using even if I wasn't following a pattern if I had...

I'm not sure we'll make 20 participants... but we've got at least 8 - 10 who have shown interest so that is a pretty good start! I will take names until October 10th -- then we'll know exactly how many participants we have. If you think you might like to make a bug jar quilt some day -- this...

For the first time in AGES I get to do quilty stuff this afternoon. For the first time EVER I get to join a quilting group! Yay for me! I'll report back after the meeting. Am on pins & needles waiting to go in about half an hour... Got to drag some kit together first... -- Kate XXXXXX ...

Do you folks have trouble with jewelry store personnel flat-out lying to you about when things will be ready? This is the THIRD time a jewelry store in Springfield, Illinois has done it to my family! The first time, I took a modest collection of jewelry from my mother's estate to be appraised for...

Though I wasn't sure about this batting, I have found that it behaved it self very well during machine quilting. It is very much like the Warm & Natural 100% cotton, though Warm & Safe is said to be made from plantation trees. It had the same clingy properties that I count on when I use other...

Does anyone have some small samples of wool and silk batting that they would be willing to send me? I'd like to have a few different samples for my students to see when I start teaching in January, and I don't have anything other than cotton and polyester. I'd love them to see wool and, possibly...
