http://community.webshots.com/user/DeeSkye?vhost=community I wanted all of you to know that I have started to put some of my attempts at quilting on this site. I will be putting more on in the next few days. Deanna Roanoke, VA

I know we've had this discussion numerous times, but since there are a lot of newbies, I thought I'd open it up again. There are some that answer posts by posting on top and others that wait and post at the bottom of previous posts. Personally, I prefer posting on top, leaving enough of the...

Can anyone tell me how to get in touch with someone concerning making the Quilts of Valor. I have a friend and maybe a small group of ladies who want to make a few of these quilts. They need to know the size needed and other information. Thanks, Barbara in SC

I have always made my bindings a quarter inch, and I have decided that the quilt I am working on should have a half inch binding. Before I cut the binding fabric, I need to know the best way to attach the binding. My question is...when I stitch the binding to the quilt, do I line up the edges of...

Last week I was working on a spiderman quilt and a 'sporty kids' baby quilt - I finished both this weekend - well, at least the spiderman #2 quilt is finished! I ended up making a second spiderman quilt from the panel that I had intended to use as backing for the original quilt top and making a...

Oh I am just sooooo mad at my boys right now!!! I was doing some work in their "area" just now and saw some black handled scissors sitting on their work table. Laughing to myself, I tell myself not to be silly, that those are just those cheap black handled "wanna be" scissors that I always think...

I can't tell you what I did for fear of breaking one of the rctq rules, but I think you can guess. How about you run on over to rct marketplace and check out my post there. In fact, here's a...

I asked for ideas a few days ago! The Chairlady has announced a "Song Title with a Colour in the title" challenge. Atm I can only think of Red Red Wine. I have no idea why!! lol. Thankyou all for your suggestions. -- Estelle UK http://uk.photos.yahoo.com/ph//my_photos

Have any of you owned and used the Flynn quilt frame? It sure looks like a good idea for someone wanting portability, and lower cost. Also, I've found a sewing machine that has a long arm and can stand alone without a frame called Bailey's Home Quilter that I'm wondering about. I mean - is it...

Has anyone tried the new one? The ads demonstrate it with 2 bowls of water containing red/green dyes - one bowl has the 'zero for all colours' added and then 2 white polo necks are dunked - you can guess the results! The zero-added water doesn't transfer the dyes to the sweater while the other...

I finished the table runner for MIL yesterday! Yippee! This is to be a Christmas gift for her (it will stop her from kidnapping my blue/yellow table runner, I hope ;) ), but I wanted it finished in time for Thursday, when I'll be teaching paper piecing to my quilt group. Whew! The photo doesn't...

I have bought a BOM that I am going to do the buttonhole appliqué on. Do I really need to wash the fabric before I use a fusible? When I work from my stash everything is pre-washed so I never thought about it before. I have some of the misty fuse here and they don't mention prewashing. This...

For those who remember LN, she sends a big "Hi!" to everyone. She hasn't been popping in because she hasn't been quilting, but life is good -- she still loves her job and her two kids are growing like weeds (the oldest is driving - gasp!). -- Kathy A. (Woodland, CA) Queen of Fabric...

I know that most if not all of you would be more than willing to give my extra fabric a home, but I am really in a pickle here. Last summer I had an "episode" (we'll leave it at that, it's a *really* long story) and ended up buying more fabric than I can use any time soon. An example - one day I...

This weekend is the Jax Quiltfest in Jacksonville, FL. Mom and I will be going on Saturday. Anybody within striking distance should come! Hopefully I can get some pictures since I broke my digital camera, I'll have to confiscate DH's camera, if he can find it...*sigh* -- Debi Every one has a...

I looked back through various batting threads but didn't find a direct answer to my question: What is a good batting if you want the quilt to be a warm "bed" quilt? I know there are wool batts out there, but they are very expensive. This isn't going to be an heirloom quilt, but it is very pretty...

Well sure. How could you stop me? I learned two new words this year. Blog and bling. I'm not particularly interested in blog but bling is fun stuff. The newest fabric here is so dazzling I just can't tear myself away from it. If you need a white fabric for snow, snowmen or something...
