I want to make a quilt of a photograph and want to make sure I don't infringe on any copyrights. Does anyone know how I can go about finding information on this? The photos are online and they appear to be photos of movie scenes. That seems to make it even more complicated since I'm sure that...

Ok, I now have 30 something of these adorable little Margaritaville tropical blocks put together. DH's friends birthday is October 21 so I'd really like to get this one put together. But as I have been working on these blocks the past few days during "break" time - I have been contemplating how...

I belong to a quilt Guild and just joined in the middle of last year. Yet I was asked to be on a committee this year as a board member. I am on the raffle committee. We had our first Board Meeting. I noticed there isn't a By Law Committee. Does the rest of you that belong to a Guild have a By...

I hope this works right. I just made my first webshots album with my first quilting efforts. The tropical fish wall hanging and the Pebbles and Bam Bam quilt top can be seen at http://community.webshots.com/user/debplayshere Debra in VA See my quilts...

Hi Everyone, I started working on a quilt for Mom's 80th birthday. I am doing machine embroidered Hummels and 4 patches. As this is still a quilt in the early stages (have 12/18 Hummels finished), most ideas are still in my head. So far the blocks are telling me that they want a Prarie...

Hi all, I was just wondering if anyone has done the "Summer Solstice" quilt from Feb. 2004 issue of Am. Patchwork & Quilting (variation on moon over mountain). I've been thinking lately that I want to start collecting batiks, and this is such a scrumptious pattern - I can't wait to start it now! ...

This pertains to this group because you can buy whatever you want with the money you'll easily get 'cause you read this! Best way for Quick easy cash, for REAL! LOTS OF CASH, FAST AND COMPLETELY LEGAL, THIS REALLY WORKS!! BUT YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW IT TO THE LETTER FOR IT TO WORK!!!! A little while...

Ty is safely in Afghanistan now. I was worried about the effect of the flight on his lung, but aside from being short of breath because of the altitude, he is okay. So far he knows that he will be staying at Bagram near the hospital until all of his open wounds are closed, then he thinks he will...

Anyone know anything about dating quilts? I have a quilt top that I found at a yard sale a while ago. It's pieced, hand sewn, and obviously made from old shirts and/or blouses. The "blocks" are made from muslin, and she drew the pattern she intended to quilt on the muslin with pencil. In some of...

Polly and all others in the storms way - you're in our thoughts! It certainly looks terrible, hopefully you're on high ground, with a good roof and are well anchored! Anxiously looking for new from y'all. -- Bonnie NJ

I have the fabric box book, and I'm wondering if anyone here who has made any of these can help me a bit. I'm sort of thinking about making a diamond-shaped box to hold the diamond blocks I'm slowly hand piecing, but the only diamond-shaped box in the book is too small. Does anyone have any idea...

Hi Everyone. I have 2 yards of a peach polka dot print and two yards of the same print in beige. I have only 1 yard of a chocolate brown print with small aqua and orange flowers. I'd like to make a quilt and am having trouble picking a (simple) block. I was thinking about a four-by-four patch but...

This is a general question to rctq so I don't upset anyone. The rules for posting have changed a bit since my early days and I am new back to rctq so this is a precaution against offending anyone. I am getting a lot of direct emails from the earlier post on software, as well as the response...

I see from our news that thousands are being evacuated. I have lots of fingers and toes crossed than no-one is lost or hurt in this one - it looks terrifying. r.c.t.q members get a special mention, but the prayers are for all... let us know how you all are when you get back on-line. -- Kate ...

if anyone has a link to a printable Joann coupon, I would love it, as I'm off to a retreat in Lake George tomorrow. Thanks in advance. Sharon

I have just finished a top made of Civil War reproduction fabric. I vaguely remember someone on Simply Quilts or maybe a speaker at a guild meeting talking about how to finish the edges without binding. You layer the batting, quilt top, then backing (facing the top) and stitch around 3 1/2 sides,...

The SD quilt show is this weekend. I plan on attending on Sunday & would really love a trip to Rosies also, would love to meet up with other RCTQ'ers if any will be there. drop me an e-mail at -- Terbear~Curator of the HUG Gallery~ http://gallery.ppwp.com/gallery/HUGS

Hello all - I received an e-mail from Jeff Stuyvesant with a request for help. Here is his request - __________________________________________ I know its been a while since we've talked... I hoping that you can help me...and some others.

Hi, If you get a moment, I would appreciate your opinions on a project that I am starting. I have put pictures of two possible arrangements of blocks in my "Opinions, please?" album on webshots. I think that I know what I want to do but it would be good to hear what others think. This is an...
