Your "dream quilt" - what pattern is it? Colours? Have you made it? If not yet, why not? Mine is Storm at Sea in shades of dark blue & light blue & white, but I have to finish two quilts I'm making right now, then I want to start it! -- Jo in Scotland

My mailbox has been alive with color lately. Even though I have not been a part of this group for quite a while now, you lovely quilters are showering me with the most BEAUTIFUL turquoise and white quilt blocks. I can't thank you enough for trying to brighten my world with these gorgeous blocks. ...

I purchased Kent Avery's Remembrance (purple flowers on sage background)for a quilt. I finished the bolt at my local quilt store and they can't order any more. I've been looking everywhere for the fabric. Here is a link to a sample the fabric in another...

Posting for Karen: I'm ready to start the Directory for 2014! Here's how it will work - for all practical purposes there is now NO Directory in existence. If you want to be in the Directory this year you have to send me your information even if nothing has changed. Thanks for taking the time to...

I am seeing replies to msgs from our Nightmist but no original ones from her. Anyone have any ideas what is going on? Taria

Hi All, I was just wondering if there are any old timers around that remember Magic Mike's Scraps To Wraps Project. I am curious to see if any of my old quilting friends are around. (Not that I am calling them old! (:-)) Rather, let me say any Cherished Friends from days gone by! Ha. Magic Mike

With the bitter cold we are experiencing in most of the US right now, it's been a good time to "test" all those quilts we've made. Big disappointment for me. With one exception, I've always used Warm and Natural needled cotton. I like it because it can be quilted up to 10 inches apart. But I...

This looks like an interesting idea for a quilt... http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/02/140224124212.htm ....but I've got no idea how you'd do it. Some sort of random decision maker like a coin flip or dice throw, combined with some extra rules about keeping identical colours far...

How would you go about planning a double Irish chain quilt around 12" quilt blocks? I am kind of working backwards here. I purchased these great cross-stitched 12" blocks from Ebay. I want to make a double Irish chain quilt around them, but I can't find instructions anywhere for 12" blocks. I want...

This is all according to how I understand it. You do not get points off the follow up quiz for proving me wrong. I appreciate input about such things. A LOT of people think they are allergic to wool. A lot of them are wrong. Wool allergies are actually pretty rare. Much more common are...

Is there any reason we don't have a couple of hug quilts set back in case of short order need? Sometimes we really could use a hug that gets where it is going kind of quickly. I know it wouldn't be as personal but in a case like the Gifford hug we could have had one to her right away. Just a...

I received a spam email from Miriam Gaar and I saw a lot of other RCTQers on the "recipients" list. I think your account has been hacked Mim. -- Jo in Scotland

I got it. Will send a block out this week. Thanks, Kate!

I know Ive hit this subject a little late, but I am making a death/mourning quilt. I have several ideas of my own, but would like to look at Victorian ones to compare. I keep pulling up the same 4 examples online (including your recommendation). Is there a book avail? Thanks, dd

I've been back home in SC for 6 weeks now. Son & family are still in our house with us, but we have found them a used mobile home that should be moved to their property next week. Hoo Ray!!!! Then there will some minor repairs, as well as all the cleaning to be done before they move. Guess...

I have to thank everyone who was kind enough to send me such beautiful *HUG* blocks for my dear friend who is battling a furious breast cancer. I took them to her yesterday, with all the envelopes and notes intact, and I just wish you could've seen her face. If you'd handed her a million dollars,...

Hi Butterfly, Unfortunately, I am unable to get the link to open but would love to see the quilt. Is there another address you could post. Di Melb.Vic. On Tuesday, May 2, 2000 5:00:00 PM UTC+10, Butterfly wrote: What you all have been waiting for is now ready for viewing. We have updated the...

I was watching a Western, (Gunsmoke) the other day ( my favorite ) and saw an interesting quilt when Matt checked into The Dodge House after he gave up his Marshall Badge. It was a light green and brown (almost tan), made from solid 12' print blocks. It was very simple----not pieced...
