I received the parts I ordered for the new/old Featherweight I acquired, and I have a question for all of you Featherweight Phanatics. I have never owned one or even used one before this recent acquisition. So my questions is: How fast does this machine sew? In relation to any of the sewing...

This is a planter outside our County Courthouse. It is cordoned off until the chick is out of the nest. http://www.ustream.tv/channel/scgtv-owlcam Seems to me the Owlet eats all the time. Anna Belle in Brevard County

Enjoy, jennellh. A police officer pulls over a speeding car. The officer says, ' I clocked you at 80 miles per hour, sir.' The driver says, 'Gee, officer I had it on cruise control at 60, perhaps your radar gun needs calibrating. ' Not looking up from her knitting the wife says: 'Now don't be...

This was forwarded from my sister who usually calls me first whenever she has a computer problem. I'll have to quote the error number to her next time. jennellh Forwarded text: I was having trouble with my computer. So I called David, the 11 year old next door whose bedroom looks like Mission...

Here is a very interesting website - I love spiders but not in my home, although this one can live here as long as it likes. You can even change it's shape, colour etc. http://www.onemotion.com/flash/spider/ Cheers, -- Di

Hi everyone. I’m doing a small-business course, and I need to do this survey amongst a group of people of my choice. Because most of this stuff is new to me, and I’m really quite nervous, I’ve chosen quilt-makers - to stay in my comfort-zone!!! I’d be really grateful for some responses, especially...

This group had gotten to looking funny because I was getting some responses but not the original threads. I had been hoping for an update on Irene, wanted to know how Susan's quilt show went and was wondering what we had done with Jeanne. No clue why it worked but I unsubscribed and then...

Our quilt show in general was a great success. More about that later. Now I must brag----I won a blue ribbon, Best Pieced Bed Quilt for my Civil War Love Letters quilt. This is the quilt with 121 foundation pieced blocks based on the book by Rosemary Youngs. Yes, I know you want a picture but that...

Thank you all for all of your prayers, healing thoughts and positive vibes....they are working. We got the results of the MRI (with dye contrast) and the tumor does not seem to have spread (thank God). It is also very small (thank God)....so small that they could not measure it with the...

DH and I are going to be in Seattle next weekend, buying a bicycle he can use for commuting to work. REI is pretty much in the center of Seattle. And we're spending Friday night in Issaquah. So, my friends on the green side of the mountain, where should I go for a couple of really good quilt...

Is anyone planning to attend? I will be going down on Sat 28 Mar. It is held at the Burbank Hilton, across from the Bob Hope Airport , Fri through sunday 27 Mar to 29 Mar. Looked into taking the train, but the round trip cost is twice as expensive as it would be for me to drive. Ginger in CA

http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2825028590053386571tCRZGC Finished this top tonight. I can see using this pattern more......with patriotic prints, novelties, I Spy, etc. Directions are given for 4, 5, or 6 inch squares. I made this one with 6 inch. Guess tomorrow I better start...

I got to thinking about the Facebook users who are now identified in the soon-to-be-published Directory and wondered who uses Twitter. I have recently gotten hooked on Twitter (have been a member for a while, but just went hog-wild in the last few weeks). There is a really good application for...

It is with glee and a sense of relief to announce that the Double Irish Chain quilt is pieced and at the quilter's. It is a lovely group of colors. This is a queen size quilt made for a quilt drawing to raise money for the Relay for Life. I coordinated the project and still have to sell tickets,...

Hello all... I was thinking of a different quilt swap. I would coordinate swapping and sending / receiving all the squares for a "barnyard theme". I would supply the batting of a wool blend (llama and Icelandic sheep) to everyone who participates. The quilts would end up being a bit smaller...

Hi, My DH got home from work very late last night and left again early this morning. So, he really had no time to help me take pics of my HUG. I had to do it myself and didn't do a very good job I'm afraid. Please ignore the striped comforter under the quilt and the laundry basket in the...
