Not OT Wishing to trade by
Ginger in CA
I am looking for a copy of "Celtic Quilts; A New Look for ancient
designs" by Beth Ann Williams (pub 2000). I have been out-bid on eBay
twice now for this book. If anyone has a copy they no longer want in
their collection, or for some reason have two copies (ask me how I know
how this can be...

cleaning up - give aways/swaps by
quilter
I'm cleaning, sort of, and have a few items I thought people might want
to trade for (or just take). Just email me if you're interested in
them. I don't need much in return - just enough fat quarters to cover
the shipping cost.

Bonus quilt by
Julia in MN
A few weeks ago, I finished a quilt for my granddaughter that combined
blocks my mother had embroidered with a lot of scrappy '30's repro
fabrics. I ended up with some extra 4-patches, so I made a small quilt
for DGD to use with her dolls. I added a piano-key border using scraps
left from the...

OT Hurricane Wilma by
Kate T.
Well folks, Polly and I might have to pack up and run again. If the
high over us does not hold we might get hit with another storm. Pray
with us that this thing just falls apart and dies in the Gulf so no one
else get hurt.

Applique blocks from HE*& by
Marcella Peek
Aargh.
A couple of months back I asked for advice about some applique blocks I
had from teaching. The background to one of the samples had faded;
likely from being displayed in a window or very sunny spot.
Well....I re-did the faded block. Then, I realized on another block I
had the colors of...

New Album, different meaning by
Tina
I started a new temporary album, just for immediate, rush photos that I
can put up without any controversy.
Some of it won't be of interest to many of you because it is NOT photos
of quilts. This will be kind of a docu-drama of my "World Series Week"
and that in fact, is the title of the...

Posting ON Topic threads by
Tia Mary
Hi Guys,
I wanted to mention this again because I noticed a number of folks
are posting ON TOPIC threads with "Not O(and)T" in the subject line. I
wrote that O(and)T that way on purpose so that this thread wouldn't be
filtered. Remember that a lot of people filter off topic posts with
those two...

Christmas Snowman by
Sally Swindells
Digging around in my 'decorations to do' box I've just found a
readymade snowman bottle thingy I am going to use as a template.
Thought he might be useful for someone else with scaps to use up. He
is mounted on cardboard, but I am going to use a stiff interfaceing I
think. His measurements at...

Okay, the first part of my other thread has gotten plenty of answers
(the favorite color to use in a quilt part) but the second part hasn't
so I'm going to try it here on a different thread since it really is a
different topic basically. So here goes:

Not entirely OT -- sewing project woes by

I make beautiful quilts, but I'm hopeless with a garment. So when the
LQS scheduled sewing classes, I signed up. Having a project isn't
required, but recommended. So with the next class coming up on Tuesday
the 11th and being zippers, I leafed through my very small collection of

Now I feel guilty. by
Phyllis Nilsson
This morning, at 8 a.m., I left the house and went to a garage sale that
advertised quilting fabric, but they wouldn't open until 9. I dropped
some books off at the library and went back and sat until they opened
about 5 minutes early. I was the first one in the garage and told her
I'd take all...

Oops! How to repair small hole in quilt top by
Bob & Kathleen
I have been working on a wholecloth for about 2 years. Finally finished
and realized that at some time I clipped too close to the fabric and has
a cut about 1/4 long. Not near a quilting line. Any ideas of how to
perform an invisible mend?
