Back a few years ago I participated in a 9 patch swap that was posted on this newsgroup. I swapped for a whole year and ended up with about 170 blocks. These blocks have sat in a drawer ever since, waiting to be used. I moved about 3 months ago, and found a bunch that were still in...

I just added some pictures to my album. Most of them are quilts by my mother and grandmother, but I added a couple pictures of my own WIPs too as well as one of my QI. -- Charlotte http://community.webshots.com/user/charh108

I need a few parts for a Singer 237 Fashion Mate. Can anyone recommend a repair/parts supply that has been good to them in the past? This will be fun. A friend fished the machine (and its nice little table) out of a dumpster. The machine had torn out of the table (sound familiar, Mardi?) but my...

I changed my original BOM for 2004 to a single quilted block to fit my pantry door. I have January and February done. They are only simple appliques and were a lot of fun to do. Both were done in a weekend's time. My motivation to keep creating blocks is that it will look kinda silly having...

my last post was only to see how many i could get to help.. not start the drama fest. i have no reason to lie or be a part of a group of women who are selfish . or rude. i know you wouldnt say that stuff to my face. you have no ideal what a smile it is when you bring a quilt to an elderly...

How many of us like this series of almost-solids and use them a lot? Or do you think they're passe'? Monique, more a fan of Moda Marbles.

Can anyone tell me about a pfaff sewmatic 1111. My SIL is offering to sell me hers (she's upgrading) but I need a really quiet machine (I'm in a first floor flat) I can't try it before I buy, they live so far away, but she's willing to post it. Help please....................... Love Gail

I have been determined to get my Southwest Quilt done before I start on anything else VBG except for the block I am doing for our quilt show. Then I decided to go on a quilt retreat with the guild in March. I thought that would be a perfect time to get a surprise quilt cut out for my husband. We...

Finally, eventually and at long last I have found my way back to RCTQ! Since my last post in July I have been completely out of touch, we moved house, changed provider, changed e-mail address and had no way of staying in touch with the group. I know I must have missed out on an awful lot of news...

Anyone on here going to the NJ Love Apple's Guild Quilt Show February 13, 14, and 15 in Cherry Hill, NJ at the Clarion? I will have 4 quilts in the show and one challenge jacket. I will be one of the people modeling Rachel Clark's wearables at the Friday nite fashion show, working the front desk...

Di and I were discussing meatloaf. She mentioned she adds bbq sauce. I do too. Then she mentioned cheese would be fun. Got us to thinking, what have YOU added to meatloaf? -- LN in NH a crazy quilter * hand quilter * & hand appliquér all in all --- a very slow quilter.... So send...

As I said in a previous message I make some quilts for ABC quilts. Up to now, I suppose I have completed in the neighborhood of 10 or so quilts, the latest 2 I have put pictures on the internet. The address is http://photos.yahoo.com/v_1brchr. Both are made by the "quilt as you sew" method. The...

Just posted (well, DH posted) some new pictures. The Jigsaw quilts are great fun and wonderful as small baby quilts. Each top takes only 4 fat quarters. And it's something 'different.' joan joan o'reilly http://members.aol.com/Joan8904/index.html
