"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...

I've got a few quilts on my 'once in my lifetime' list to piece. A grandmother's flower garden, a balitimore album type, an 'apple core' charm, and some sort of 'postage stamp' quilt - made with finished 1 inch squares. I am in a swap of 1 1/2 inch fabric squares - and so I thought I would look...

"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...

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...

"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 Pat in Virginia
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...
