OT joke- bossy man by
jules
A man was tired of being bossed around by his wife, so he went to a
psychiatrist. The psychiatrist said he needed to build his
self-esteem and so gave him a book on assertiveness, which he read
on the train on the way home. He finished the book by the time he

zo
While I've been doing teh shop hop, I've noticed that lots of the
sites have their own contest for a gift certificate. Are these
contests for real? By registering, do you end up getting lots of junk
email? Any other things I should look out for before I sign up for
these contests? Thanks

Another background question by
Julia in MN
Lay a couple of of blocks out on a good-sized piece of black and white
check (or any other sashing color you are considering) leaving about the

Roberta Zollner
No pets currently in our family. But this morning I was outside quilting
(the wholecloth monster that's 3/4 finished), a couple of hours earlier than
my normal schedule, and the kitty from next door came by. She usually

Howdy!
There's a quilt shop on the way home from the dentist's office;
well, there is if I go that way! After bravely enduring yet another

Wash before or after binding? by
BarbQuilts
I have always sewn on both sides of the binding and then washed my quilts to

quilts before they attach the binding at all. (My fabric and backing are
already prewashed, but not the batting.)
I am curious what you all...
