OT Glider Plane covers by
Alice in PA[_3_]
I think I've mentioned this project before, but now it's done! A friend and
neighbor asked me if I could do a sewing project for him. He said it would
be like pillowcases! Yep, 27 foot long pillowcases to use as covers for his
club's glider plane. We used poly/cotton as anything else would...

Downy quilts by
Karen, Queen of Squishies[_2_]
I'm making good progress on my Downy quilts. I have 2 of their tops and
2 of mine quilted. Need to quilt the last 1 of each, bind them, and sew
their labels on. I *really* want to start cutting up my scraps into
useable squares of whatever sizes. How far do you think I'll get before

pressing spray recipe by
Taria
http://www.aquiltingsheep.com/p/pressing-spray-recipe.html
Has anyone tried this copy cat recipe for
pressing spray? I remember Cindy talking about how she likes the Mary Ellen
stuff so much. This is a lot cheaper and handier to make than find around
here.

Looking for fabric by
Robyn
Hi,
Was wondering if someone could help with a fabric search. On the cover of
Love of Quilting (Fons & Porter) March/April 2010. I am after the Tulip
Panel and Tulip Fabric in the border, I can't find it here in Oz. It's a
fabric collection by Ro Gregg for Northcott.
Thanks
Robyn

Mostly OT by
Pat S
Glad to see you home safely, Sandy; but it sounds like it was a lovely
trip. Seeing family is so heart-warming - and the side tour to the Loire
must have been beautiful.
Have a great time at quilt camp - I look forward to seeing this year's
masterpiece! You always do such superb work.

Hello, I'm new here... by

What can I say? Some of you may know me from alt.sewing, but I just got
addicted to patchwork and quilting. Kate XXXXXX (Hi Kate!wave
hello) recommended this group before, so now that I'm an official junkie I
thought I might join you.
What have I done so far? Currently I'm working on my first...

I'm refusing to buy by
Sunny[_2_]
ANY fabric from amazon.com. I'm a very frequent online shopper for
fabric. I don't have a problem buying on line what I can't find here
in town. But now Amazon.com is carrying fabric. I think it's limited
-- for now -- but I will not ever, ever buy fabric from Amazon. They
carry everything else,...

Quilt labels (again?) by
Sartorresartus
OK, I admit it, I don't label my quilts.
I know I should. I think I would like to.
But
My quilts are usually reversible, so if I put a label on the 'back'
when you turn it over it will show. Yes, I know I could always
embroider something in the margin, but that isn't always practical,
either.

Shibori by
Julia in MN[_5_]
A friend and I tried some shibori yesterday, using bleach to discharge
the dye in the fabric. We had lots of fun trying different ways to tie
the fabric and seeing how the bleach changed the color of the fabric. I
had mostly black fabric, which turned a lovely brown when bleached.

quilting is once again in my future!! by
off kilter [email protected]
Yay!! It's actually been a while since I made a quilt of any kind.
However, as I'm finishing up projects, I'm also getting ready to get
to work on an Areil quilt for the daughter of a friend. I have the
first blocks cut out, but they have been sitting on the design wall
for about a year. I think...

OT -Howdy Doody is ready to go! by
Alice in PA[_3_]
The completed surrey top that I made has now reached my brother, and is
installed on his restored child's surrey from the 50's. He sent me a photo
on his cell phone, so I thought I'd share it with you.

OT(?): I'm BACK! by
Sunny[_2_]
OMG, I have tried and tried and tried and finally found a link that
brought me back here. It's such a relief to be back. Whew.
I could see you guys yesterday but couldn't post. I want you all to
know this has been traumatic. I need my RCTQ fix.
To catch you up, the garage sale didn't do too well....
