Hi Everyone, I posted a photo of a quilt that I did on my new HQ16. It is the 3rd try and came out OK. I bound it and offered it to Chloe, the Senior QI. All around approval from her and it now has a nice layer of dog hair to make it complete. Also some new photos of the novice Kitty QI...

Well, Natalie has made it as far as Columbus, OH on her move from CA to DC. We met up at Perkin's Pancake House for an early dinner. We didn't have too long because she and her SIL were hoping to make it past Pittsburgh tonight. She has managed to hit a couple quilt shops on her way East----has...

If you've got a moment, please take a look at the first quilt in my webshots WIP album (quilt top for kiki). It's ready for its third border, which I've planned to be the same as the first. When I did the design in EQ5 (2nd pic in WIP album)I didn't think about the binding. I really like the look...

Okay, so I was hoping to start on Rebekahs first Mommy-made quilt but needed to pre-wash the fabrics. Any idea where they could have hidden themselves?? I have checked the fabric storage closet, which is where I last remember seeing them, I have checked the sewing project cabinet in my new sewing...

I am making a quilt that is made up of two different designs of 12" blocks. Just the blocks, pre-border, will be 60X84 then I plan to put borders on to make it a queen size quilt. I want to quilt the blocks with a diamond pattern. Then I will SITD around the seams of the borders, not with...

For my piano studio bookkeeping, I need a calendar with Sunday as the last day of the week. I can't find one anywhere, and I can't seem to make one on my computer. Consider me calendar-challenged, or whatever. I accept the truth. LOL! Can someone take pity on me and send me one?? Karen, Queen...

I've been slack, and haven't finished my 12 Grandma's Bunny blocks for my friends baby which is now due next week - eek! So, after having several weeks off, I've been super-busy and have now got 8 of the little darlings done, just 4 more blocks and 5 bunnies (one block has two on it), the next...

Recently within the last 6 months I bought a new cutting mat and about 3 weeks ago it broke in half!!!!! I was so put out I wrote to Olfa North America to complain....no response ...but today, by UPS, I received a new replacement mat and a 28 mm rotary cutter! I was impressed with...

Woohoo... started and finished a wallhanging. Our friends who are taking dd to Europe this summer have a schnauzer so I made them a wallhanging to thank them. It's in the wallhanging section of my photoalbum at http://photos.yahoo.com/sesesi, if you'd like to see it. Marijke in windy Montreal

I just added a photo of the quilt top I made with fabrics given to me on my 50th birthday. It is really wild and bright and the picture doesn't do it justice, but it will give you an idea of what it is like. http://community.webshots.com/album/37015880vszRXO How do I rearrange the pics to show...

I wanted to take some pictures of our Linus booth at the quilt show to our Project Linus Conference this week. Do you think I can find the stoopid pictures? I've looked in every logical & illogical place I can think of. Any ideas? Hey, Ragmop, think you could find them for me? -- Donna in...

Can I use 100% cotton thread in the top (needle) and polyester thread in the bobbin when quilting? I am trying to finish up a picnic quilt for DH, and the top calls for a nice sort of golden/khaki thread which I have in cotton, but the backing of the quilt is solid teal. I could use the same...

Well, after all these tops, it looks like I'm finally getting a round tuit and gonna quilt one. But I have a question about batts. I have some Warm & Natural, some Fairfield Cotton Classic and some Hobbs Heirloom Premium. I've quilted sandwiches of each, with large stippling/small meandering, and...

Now I understand the joke about the bedspred and embroider. I never heard of her or saw any of her work. Found her in Google, thanks Interesting artist, not works that I want hung in my living room, but surely art. Kay -- All outgoing mail is scanned by Norton Anti Virus software.

Hi group. Is anyone planning on going to the Nashville Quilt Show in August? http://www.aqsshows.com/show/nash/nashville.cfm I wasn't able to get into Paducah so I thought about going to this one. It's close enough to me that I could just drive over for just 1 day to check out the quilts but...

I almost can't believe it. I was fooling around looking at websites today and clicked on AQS. Read about the Exposition in Nashville in August and signed up for five classes! With all the hoo-ha of Father's Day, I guess it really didn't hit me until now. This will be my first group of classes...

Hi everybody. Long time lurker, first time poster... I just finished piecing a Yellow Brick Road quilt and LOVED every minute of it. I'm shopping around for my next project, and I stumbled on these crazy quilts by Buggy Barn. (If anybody wants to see, their web address is buggybarnquilts.com) ...

I always wonder why I manage to do so much quilting in the summer. Just now, I finished sandwiching a quilt in our sunroom (only room with table big enough). Sunrooms are nice but habitable only a few days a year. It was already 85 + in there by 11 a.m........but it is done, ready to be...
