Hanne in DK
Dear all,
My friend is asking me about buying a sewing machine (she is in AL). She
wants to spend no more than $200, which is not a lot.
My first sewing machine was a $179 simplicity machine from walmart, and
I did just fine on it, but the balance was an eternal struggle. Other
then that, just...

Yes, I've been on a bit of walkabout the past year, and am trying to
get into a more settled mode in my life.
About last year at this time, I...

minkee finish by
Karen, Queen of Squishies
I finished the baby quilt with the minkee on the back. I didn't have
any problems at all, amazingly enough. I love it! But it is very
slick, and it kept me a little on edge while I was doing it. I
probably won't be running out any time soon to buy more, but ohhhh this
one is so...

When to Walk away by
Polly Esther[_5_]
Walking away is good. I was SO annoyed at the quilt I was making that I
folded it and its pattern away and put it in the living room. ( Nobody goes
in there hardly ever except for a weekly cleaning.)
I got out all my heirloom sewing stuff - silk batiste, French lace,
special ribbons and...

Yesterday my young friend called and said that he had gotten a call that the
third person had accepted the plea deal. The creep/jerk/liferuiner is back

victims but most awful is that one victim in Seattle...

Pillow cases, iron & applique by
Donna[_8_]
Good morning, all! Hope you're all warmer then 28 degree's!
Sharing an small idea:
I have spare pillow cases that I use on the end of my ironing board.
Not only gives my iron board cloth a longer life, but it's easy to
slip off the pillow case,wash it and thus always have a nice clean place

bird feet My kind of therapy by
Sandy E
Howdy!
Ah, the famous Helicopter Bird: he's hovering!
I thought the bird had feet, but he's hovering over the branch.
Maybe add a little embroidery thread to serve as a twig for the
little guy to perch on for a moment.

We saw the news story about your Dr. Pepper bottling plant. I think that
place must have been near and dear to many of the locals there.
This stinks, I am boycotting Snapple.
I'm sorry. : (

Triangles by
Barb[_4_]
I'm having a problem with triangles for a quilt I'm making. When I start to sew at a point, the fabric bunches up under the needle. It seems that the dog feet doesn't grab the fabric, so cannot push it along. Does anybody have a trick or solution to this.
