The newborn group we support in north, waaaaay north Mississippi (they're so far north they're almost Yankees) is going to have a baby shower. They have received requests for 80 arrivals expected in May. The list of things needed includes quilts, receiving blankets, sleepers, gowns, onsies and...

G'day Kate Just saw your comment in my webshots album about the challenge quilt I made last month. It came this "II" close to getting a prize! . quilting let me down evidently :( Firstly, the centre fabric I bought online about 6 mths ago when the US dollar had almost parity with the Aussie dollar...

How I hate to be the bearer of such devastating news. Here's what I received from our Bonnie NJ - Hi Polly, I wanted to let you know that I will only be sending one quilt for the babies in Mississippi. I will save the address and send one when I can. My son decided that he no longer wanted...

Yesterday morning a friend called to ask if I could bring my SM over and help her finish a project she was working on for a fundraiser auction to be held Saturday (tonight actually -- as I'm writing this). I packed up the car, drove over and found a gorgeous piece of elegant, silky decorator...

Not to change Joanna's post about her new (really cute) purse, but if you lose things in your purse for lack of pockets, these are really simple to make. I've used mine in my purse and in a tote bag! I think it would be helpful in a diaper bag or in a suitcase too. It makes switching bags...

Do not open any URL that has: SURPRISE or exe. in the URL. Can't emphasis this enuf. Took my Compie Guru HOURS to get it straightened out. And I bet you thought

Love this pattern. Goes together quick and easy. I started cutting pieces on Friday night and sewed on the last border on Sunday night. After quilting it will be donated to American Hero Quilts. http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2354453490053386571XWdyFH --...

Hi - I am a returning visitor - have been lurking for some time. I have planned a quilt with EQ6. A quilt for my 14 year old granddaughter. Actually, I have allready made a good part of the colored blocks. The pattern is Love Ring, made of drunkard's path blocks. But I want it to be one color in...

Alan's surgery went well on Wednesday, and he says Thank You for all the good wishes. Now comes the painful PT exercises... gentle but relentless: for 10 mins every two hours - and it hurts! No driving for about a month, no typing fpr a week - except one-handed! And it was his right hand. ...

Made out of denim, with cotton on the inside. This is the first purse I have ever made but I'm really happy even with the mistakes. It's in the sewing album on webshots. Take Care Joanna Alberta http://community.webshots.com/user/exrules Or...

Pink Thing is done!! Note to self: do not wash flannel with ravelly cotton. It took me forever to pick off all the strings!! LOL First pic on page 6, because I haven't figured out how to rearrange pictures yet. :-( TerriLee in WA (state) http://community.webshots.com/user/tlbishop

We haven't heard from Polly for a couple days have we? It looks like her neck of the woods has been pounded with severe weather for the last couple of days. And they are in for more today. I hope all is well. -- Kathyl (KJ) remove "nospam" before...

Legs itching so bad going nuts! AAAAGGGGHHH!!!!! desparate Queen, needs prayers of relief

Still not getting to the quilting! Costumes stacking in holding patterns... Anyway, Alan goes in tomorrow for day surgery: carpal tunnel surgery. Ugh. I feel for him! Wrist will be out of action for a while: gonna make grocery shopping a load of fun - not! We may just have to starve! ;) ...

There was a charm pack here of Michael Miller's Fairy Frost in 50 colors. I've made twelve Dutchman's Puzzle (flying geese) blocks from Nickel Quilts by Pat Speth. That went well. They will be used to frame an appliqué named Silly Goose. ( Geese - goose. Are you with me so far?) I...

------------------------------------- Hello everyone, I just joined and have a question. Does anyone use the Mega Quilter on an Inspira frame? If so, how do you manage to do a bed quilt on it without having to turn it around half way thru because the throat is too small? I now have 15 tops...

I've had a couple of WalMart gift cards for over a month now, and just never could figure out what I wanted and never felt like going in to look around. This week I started thinking I would see if they have any baby flannels just for fun stuff. Finally on Friday I felt like I could handle a...

Here is the second of two gift quilts that I have made for some old friends. who live out of state. I have done a post construction wash on both of them and I really like the effect. I may be doing this on most of my quilts now that I see the results on a couple of recent quilts. It iomparts and...
