Anyone here have a quilt on display at the New City NY library? There were about 10 and they were beautiful. Lee rarebirdyatverizondotnet Park Ridge, NJ

Just curious. When you run across a fabric that you just dearly love, but have no idea what you're going to do with it, or nothing at home that really complements it, how much of it do you buy? Just in anticipation that you WILL use it in a quilt pattern some day? Sherry

Hey Sandy, My Mum is talking about possibly making a trip to Las Vegas while I am there. If we do, I am guessing it will be sometime during the last two weeks in June, are you going to be around for a meet-up? Shona, arranging arranging, in NZ

They want 50 euro for it, but I can talk him down to 35 or 40 ($75 talk down to $50ish) except for the band which needs tightening it is in perfact condition. I am busy talking my self out of it. DH says Why do you need that...

In the midst of bustleing around this morning to make sure every reletive on the planet knows Ash is a ginger man tonight, plus all the other attendant holiday madness, I got a phone call that made me just drop everything and light a cigarette while contemplating rum before noon.

My Janome 6600 sm decided it had enough after one handbag! The stinker- it quit making stitches, so Monday morning off to the repair shop it goes. I switched to my little Janome Jem and made a tote to be used with a walker. If you click on each picture, there is a description under the...

OK all you US-based chocolate fanatics. According to this site - http://www.sfu.ca/geog351fall03/groups-webpages/gp8/consum/consum.html even Australia rates higher than the States! That is not necessarily something for us to be proud of, but clearly some of you are slacking off on the chocky...

I have been looking to get a new machine, and it looks as though what I'd like does not exist. Looking at Bernina, Viking, and Pfaff, currently. I like the large 9 inch work area of the mega quilter and grandquilter, but do not want to get one of those big stands. I did try one out at the...

Has anyone tried dyeing knitting yarn using Kool-Aid? I don't remember ever seeing Kool-Aid in the supermarket here, but would be interested in trying this if it really works. http://www.knitpicks.com/projects/projects_display_yarn.aspx?itemid=DyeingTutorial -- Cheryl in...

I taught my first class at the Country Sampler Quilt Shop (Papillion NE) last night. It was a Needlepunch class and, I thought, great fun. By the time the ladies left, I felt they were all punching confidently. I do love teaching. And punchneedle embroidery is a neat, quick and satisfying old/new...

Joan, I will check with OLFA concerning the wear on cutting mats by using the rotary pinking shears and see if they have any suggestions on how to extend the life of your mats. Regards, Derek

Okay some I'm a couple of hours early (about 4 to be precise!) but I just wanted to wish y'all a happy Valentine's Day and hope that y'all are showed, and indeed show your loved ones, heaps of love. Me? I'm married to someone who before we married sent me the bestest flowers ever, and once we...

Trying to reach Carey Hutchins. You are in my miniRR group and we are trying to communicate with you. Please contact us via ng or direct email. This is very important! (we've been trying to reach you for over two weeks and have heard nothing) Thanks, Ginger in CA

Hi, This group is always a wealth of knowledge and suggestions, so I turn to all of you asking for ideas on a gift for a fellow quilter. It should cost about $15-$20. So what would you want to receive in that price range? TIA, Nancy in MD
