Hi All, Does anyone know of a web site that has the directions for the "Stack & Slash" quilt? I used to have one "bookmarked" a long time ago, but can't find it now. I know to use about 6- 12" squares and then slash, swap the pieces & then sew them back together, but I'd really like to...

Well, as y'all have probably figured out by now, it never just rains at my house, it pours. If things are going to happen here, they happen all at once. I believe I mentioned briefly that I was sick for a bit. Another week of fever (103-105 F) to leave me dried out and wobbly. I've no idea why...

Just wanting people's thoughts on this. You can e-mail me privately if you wish. I'm not looking for a flame war, just some honest real life thoughts. The first website is a site you can look up the shots a lot of us received as children. The actually little piece of paper that comes with the shot...

Here it is in all its glory awaiting stretching: http://www.flickr.com/photos/12554259@N07/2319032366/ I have to say the wake is my personal, most disliked part of the quilt. Done with muslin and never to be touched again until stretched in a week or so. Eddie

i found on a blog a link to this 'retired' but not removed from the original website, quilt pattern. posted a link to the blog for others, who'd asked for the pattern, to a yahoo group to which i belong. the pattern is a pdf file. posting pdf file links to the group is not allowed. that is why i...

I am writing the truth and I need someone to help. I am not crazy and I am not a troll. Go to the FBI and tell them about Steve. That he is a fairly new requit, he is good looking, he's gay and he was top of his class in what he does. Tell them they just can't talk to him over the phone, they...

A few months ago I posted PDF files for the Kool Kats Kwilt. Well, I broke down and did it, sort of. LOL, the pattern says to follow the picture to arrange cats. The scan was in black and white. It didn't really matter since I was not following the recommended cutting instructions for 13 or so...

no msgs. read from here today. are you guys ok out there? Taria

Hi Everyone, I am happy to saw that my in-laws are ok and their unit was not damaged. The roof at the opposite end of their building was blown off though. Trees down, etc. We were talking to them Friday night at 6:00 PM and Charley was just landing - blowing the carport roof off. We did not...

Hi all Just to let you all know that my mission to finish my one off project is now on task. View what I would like it to finish as at: =ph and what I have achieved up to now...

Pat, I will have to take you shopping with me sometime. I bought some really pretty Benartex fabric last year and started to use it this year on an Irish Chain quilt. It was looking so good that I decided to make the quilt bigger so that it would fit on my queen size bed, but alas, I can't find...

Hello everyone! I posted here a few times about five years ago, just as I was beginning my first quilt. I was slow to get started, I think because I was scared to cut into expensive fabric without really knowing what I was doing. I'm sure you remember how it is? ;-D Anyway, long story short,...

When you go to the store to get punkin pies be sure to read the box and not just look at the picture, you could be getting Sweetpotato pie. My DH brought home 2 of them so had to go back to the store to get punkin, I usually make them from scratch but not this yr. Shoulders won't take the rolling...

Figured I'd better check in, besides just lurking in the background. Just want to thank all of you for the prayers, good thoughts and well wishes. I really can't understand why my son hasn't been found, unless, as the detective in charge of the case says, perhaps he doesn't want to be found. ...

I love this oh-so-versatile pattern. I had a lot of fun with the YBR this winter! Here are the pictures of the two I finished this spring for two of the three couches in my house. Batik Brick Road, and Winter Brick Road, the first two photos in the 'my work'...

I'm taking a week off from making samples for my Block Party (I'm the guild committee for this) to make this quilt for my mom. She just turned 75 last week, and has been asking me for a quilt for some time. Now that my shoulder has recovered somewhat, I started working on hers. It will be...

Tomorrow I will be off to the hospital for a D&C to remove some polyps I have - please send some spare good thoughts my way that *that* is all they find and all can go according to plan thanks -- Jessamy In The Netherlands Take out: so much quilting to reply.

Some of you may know that about 4 months ago I purchased a delightful, rambling, 90 y.o. house. She's a real character (just like me!)- added on to and remodeled many times over the years. This house has 8 different levels! Some are only a step up or down, some are a few steps- and there's...

My mum (Sheila) died last night just after 2am. She was at home, I was with her, along with dad, my sisters, and mum's brother and sisters. She'd had cancer for 7 years, so we knew it was coming but it didn't half go fast in the last few days. She taught me (without ever saying it in so many...
