It is one of the American Quilter's Society publications and is chock-full of ideas for bordering any type...

Woo-hoo!! I've just ordered 2 new pattern books from my book club. One is call "Symbols of Faith - 44 Quilt Blocks" and the other is "24 Angel Quilt Blocks". Both have full size patterns in them! I can hardly wait for them to get here. Of course I won't be able to do more than read/look until my...

Fran, I love the critters! All of them! But, I really love the sashiko mini you made. I bought a book at Lancaster and some fabric, thread and needles to learn this technique, but haven't had time yet. Your little quilt is the perfect way to learn the stitches, what a great idea! Thanks so...

Thanks! I thought as a beginner quilter I should start with traditional piecing and now I have so many project running around my head I doubt if I will ever have enough time. The sampler-type quilts give me practise making different kinds of the traditional blocks. I hope to try a "picture"...

Kim mentioned the Rejoice Quilt (http://members.shaw.ca/kigraham/partners/Rejoice1.html) in the thread on "BOM" and I liked it so much I actually printed out the whole thing today. What I have in mind to do is just the center part with all the stars on black as a wall hanging with a gold sparkly...

Does anyone on the list have a Brother ULT2003 or the Babylock Ellageo? I was at an embroidery conference last week and had a chance to sew on the Brother ULT. I thought nothing could beat the D1, but I felt the Brother screen was so much more user friendly than the D1, plus it made...

I have searched this newsgroup for an answer to this question, but all the answers I seem to keep finding does not discuss washing the quilt. My wife would like to make a memory quilt using her mothers and grandmother pictures. She is planning on printing the pictures on iron on transfers and...

Mozart Beyond the Grave When Mozart passed away, he was buried in a churchyard. A couple days later, the town drunk was walking through the cemetery and heard some strange noise coming from the area where Mozart was buried. Terrified, the drunk ran and got the town magistrate to come and listen to...

well, got the quilt all pinned down - DS helped me squish the batting down - yesterday afternoon. Last night, I got the quilt sandwich sewn together and the whole thing turned. It looks a ton better than what I expected, and once again, DH said he liked it the best of everything that I have done...
