Pattern isnspiration by
NightMist
After spending an evening explaining the difference between cashmere and
mohair, and how much less expensive it is to buy a fleece than it is to
buy an equivalent weight of wool yarn (wool prices are truly dreadful in
the US), it is no wonder that I woke up this morning with this stuck in
my...

Has any one on this news group ever made what is called Rug Mugs/Mug Rugs. They are about 10 inches long by 6-8 inches wide finished. They hold a cup of coffee/tea and a cookies or two. I have been thinking of making a couple of quilted sets of 4 or 6 for a couple of friends for Christmas. I...

I need a manual for an Necchi Alco a709-5 by
Angela Lowry
I found a portable Necchi Alco a709-5 machine but not familiar with this
machine. I fix donated machines to give to young or needy sewers. Mostly I
have stuck to Singers but this was a curbside find in a case with cords,
bobbin, and looks fine. I just need to oil her and find some papers to...

Sandy from Alexandria
What do you like about your machine and/or dislike?
Which machines would you stay away from and why?
Live in the USA and am not real mechanically minded!!
Are those of you with electronic machines with touch pads happy with your

Little Foot foundation packets by
Ginger in CA[_2_]
Wondering if anyone has used them before?
Wondering of anyone has a Hunter's Star packet in their stash they no longer want and would consider rehoming it?
Have a peace-filled/piece-filled day,

OT Apples, Spike, and a raccoon by
NightMist
So we processed a half bushel of apples the other day and as a space
saving measure set a crock pot cooking apple butter on a counter upstairs.
You see my kitchen is an add on to the house, and upstairs is a former
kitchen from the old duplex days. The roof of the real kitchen is just
outside...

Fall Wall Hanging Done by
[email protected]
My fall flowers wall hanging is done. It came out pretty good but was a little disappointed because I made the leaves a little bigger than neccessary for the size of flowers used. One stem was too long, so I added two more leaves which fixed that problem.
If you don't see me post for a...

Rich vs. poor by
Brian[_3_]
I have been rereading the book "Quilts/their story and how to make them"
that I talked about in my recent post, or at least the history portion,
as I find that part very interesting.
One thing that it doesn't talk about directly, but is sort of alluded to
in several places is how...

Bye for now. by

Well dear friends it looks as if I shall be losing you.
My ISP have said they are dropping Usenet in 5 days time. I asked them
if they were dropping the amount I pay since I am losing part of the
service. Alas I did not get a reply.
My son is also with the same provider and is looking at other...

Quilting nightmare -- literally by
Julia in MN[_5_]
A few nights ago, I dreamed that I had arrived at a quilting retreat at
a location about 3 hours from where I live. After I got there, I
realized that I had the patterns for the projects I wanted to work on,
but I had left the fabric and my sewing machine at home. I had to turn
around and go...
