I know I haven't posted very much, but I have a big favor to ask of you ladies, Please put our family and my mother on your prayer list. My Mom is 88 years old and suffer a heart attack Tuesday morning and isn't doing very good. The doctors can't get her blood pressure stabilized. I live in...

While googling trying to learn more about our Mesue (wish I had a chance to get to know her), I came across a thread from 2000 in which RCTQ'ers introduced themselves in detail. I've come on board since then (September of '02), and I'm sure many others have too. Might be worth doing again for...

Hi all! I know I promised all your swap information by yesterday evening. It will be slightly delayed. My dog needed emergency surgery over the weekend to remove a corn cob lodged in her small intestine. To make matters worse she's epileptic and her seizures are brought on mostly by stress. So you...

I want to make a Tumbling Blocks quilt -- but need lots and lots more fabrics! Thought this might be a good way to do it! I'm looking for people who want to collect fabric in 3's -- all tone-on-tones.... in a DARK -- MEDIUM -- LIGHT combination. Each person will need to purchase approximately...

I went to quilters cache and printed off the Drunkard's Path pattern. http://www.quilterscache.com/D_F/DrunkardsPathBlock.html Thought I would play around with the pattern to see if I can get it mastered and then make a table runner. I didn't need the blocks as big as 6". So following their...

The world is conspireing to drive me batty! OK, short drive, but I rather cling to my few remaining shreds of sanity. I was doing the zipper in DD's Halloween costume. Our Ash had already driven me right to the edge by constantly climbing up on the table and wallowing in his still unfinished quilt...

Last week I posted my problems with MQ doing free motion quilting. The top thread kept breaking. I tried changing the thread to one I knew was higher quality, and slowed down around the curves, and still I was getting broken top threads. Changing the needle to a new one did nothing. I cleaned...
