BRITS only - insuring a quilt by
earthmagic

size, or the amount of quilting, or the price the quilt maker has put on it?
Here's the tale...I made a queen sized patchwork quilt for my daughter's
forthcoming nuptials. It is machine pieced and machine quilted. She'll...

Has anyone tried one of these yet? I've seen them advertised in several

things at a LQS here and couldn't resist buying it, though I haven't

I am starting to look around at sergers. I may be in the market to actually
purchase a good used one or a decently priced new one. I would like to have

child was born. As she grew up, her parents, although far from
illiterate, kept certain family legends alive in the time-honored oral

Hi gang, I was just cleaning out the closet with sheets and throwing away
