I own the Creative Grids angle ruler that lets a person cut half-square triangles from sewn strips. I can't find the accompanying instruction sheet (strange for my tidy sewing area!). I know that you sew two strips, let's say one blue and one yellow, to each other. I think you sew these on...

Please tell me again. I promise to write it down and keep it in my 'must be remembered' book. Last year, I wanted some fine white cotton fabric for a special red hearts on white crib quilt. Some of you recommended Kona white fabric. It was just wonderful and the quilt is still gorgeous all...

This is almost OT, but still deals with one of our addictions. Fondling. I found out recently that my 5yo dgd is a fondler. I had an unfinished quilt top that I made about 15 years ago. All pinks, peaches and a little lavendar. When I ran into that top I realized that I had unknowingly made it...

Hi all While I am a business and computer teacher, I deal more with applications like Microsoft Office and the like. There are several people at school though that are more technically savvy about things like this so I will be asking around at school tomorrow to see what they suggest. At the...

OK, Sparky, I went downstairs and played with the free-motion looking stitches. I also browsed around the Yahoo group an got their scoop. Yes, the manual says to do these with the feed dogs down. Yes, many on the group report success. Well, when I did it, the machine beeped at me and told me...

I need to buy a bunch of FQ's that I will be giving away (maybe a few will come in the form of squishy's) but most go to guild activities. Does anyone know a good shop with decent quality fabric and low cost for fat quarters? Have you done business with them? Are they reliable when it comes to...

I bought a Used Alco sewing machine the model is 2300 would anyone know how good this brand is and will it be good for quilting with?

Friends, Has anyone else bought a Janome Memory Craft 6600? What do you think of it? Have you had any problems with it? I bought one several months ago and I'm still ambivalent. I love some of the features, but I'm not impressed with others and I'm not sure I'd buy one again. Sparky

I have scrubbed a ring of slime-y soap residue from the bathtub for the last time.... I hope! All the deoderant bath soap bars now seem to contain "moisturizers" and I hate the slippery, scummy, slime-y mess they leave in my bathtub. I was using Zest White Water bars, but they seem to be...

Hello Everyone, I am looking to make an adult sized minky blanket. The minky I have is double-sided and extremely soft on both sides, however it is only 36" wide. I obviously want to make it wider, but how would I do this? Considering it is double sided it is already thick enough and I do...

I thought this might be of interest to some of you who can get it. Unfortunately, our basic cable won't receive it. I do think it's a repeat, but I'd love to be able to see it. http://tinyurl.com/mjdzb Nancy in NS http://community.webshots.com/user/loves2quilt

Does anyone know where I can find a list of all Quilt Sampler featured shops (and hometowns)? I had collected the first several years, but they were lost in a move. Thanks in advance ;) Kristie P.S. Special thank yous to those anonymous RCTQers who squished me on my birthday recently ;)

Finally it is done! Complete! And oh so comfy on my bed last night...LOL! Inspired me to get sewing again, after a loooonnnnng break, sewed a tote and then got caught up with this years BOM. Had April done and then life went crazy. But we are back in the game...now if I could just get the paper...

If anyone has this machine and frame for sale please email me at: n a p a l i l @ c o m c a s t . n e t (omit spaces). I am located in California. Thank you. Lil

I thought I posted this message last night, but now I can't find it. sorry for the repost. Teri I am still thinking over adding a border, but here is my latest quilt top from the your pick swap. I really love how creative the ladies got with...

Could someone please post the link to the HUG Gallery? I've lost my "bookmark" for it, somehow. TIA, -- TerriLee in WA (state) remove the cats to reply http://community.webshots.com/myphotos?action=viewAllPhotos&albumID=548330161

I've always admired batiks, but haven't used them in any of the quilts I've made because I am concerned about them bleeding when washed. I had a small amount of purple batik in one swap block that was made for me, and it ran when it was washed. I would really, really like to make a quilt with...
