Hi All, I was just wondering if there are any old timers around that remember Magic Mike's Scraps To Wraps Project. I am curious to see if any of my old quilting friends are around. (Not that I am calling them old! (:-)) Rather, let me say any Cherished Friends from days gone by! Ha. Magic Mike

I lost access to RCTQ months ago and have been missing our daily chats. This time I have tried access thru Google. My major quilting push is finishing UFO's . When we moved last June I had to face the reality of all the UFO's in my life. If one no longer thrilled me I gave it away but kept many....

We want to make our own pipe and drape -- either metal (electrical conduit probably) or PVC pipe. I would like to have specific parts required and technique described. My husband is very handy but he says the hard part is making something that will go together easily, be sturdy, and then come...

I check in just about every day & would love to see more action here. I haven't done much quilting lately. DH has Parkinson's Disease and has developed some dementia. He has been in a wheelchair for several years & has been requiring more and more help, especially transferring between bed &...

Recently, I got am Amazon kindle, and every once in a while, I download one of their free books. One of the books that I downloaded is called "ABC Alphabet Books of Things That Move" by Aldona Hawthorne. First I will list what she put for each letter, putting in my comments where I have...

This copied from an email I received from Big Horn Quilts- Happy Fathers Day! Well, Dave and I finally caught up with all the orders from our first sale announcement and got the website updated to reflect all the stuff we sold out of, so I marked down a bunch more today. All the stuff that was...

I made a baker's dozen pints of strawberry jam over the weekend. Then I promptly started on another dozen. Strawberries do not sit out gracefully, and 12 pounds or so take up an awful lot of fridge space. When the berries are in, they are in and need to be packed asap. You might recall that...

Just wanted to bring you up to date on my quilt. I have three sections done and sewn together. The blocks went ok but did have one beige piece turned wrong side out(can't believe I did that). On the pyramids(triangles) I did have a big problem. I had to make really small seams on the four row...

Does anyone here know a source for 'free' wine bottle gift bag pattern? Thanks!

Hello Everyone, I am a quilter and someone from another group gave me this sight. I am currently working on a quilt called Squash Blossom from Fons and Porter magazine March/April 2014 issue. I had brought an Native American print but never could find a pattern to use until now. Guessing...

Any good fabric sales for the 4th that you all can share? (trying to stir things up here) Taria, in the hot high desert of so cal.

Just wanted to let you all know I finished my quilt. Can you believe I used 2-600yds of thread of course there were so many pieces to this quilt that I probably wasted one spool with my string cutting. It is beautiful and I used two inner borders to make it a little larger which ended up 63" x...

Ragmop---I tried to send you a personal e-mail and it bounced. Will you send me the correct one. Thanks Gen

I have made 2 full size quilts in my life, and it is never happening again. I am not making any quilts right now, but at the indefinite future when I do it will either be a baby quilt for someone in perhaps my sword class or whatever that is expecting or charity quilts for an organization like...

I fully intended to work on my flower garden quilt but got side tracked instead doing a small wall hanging from "The Quilter(Special edition) 2013. Out side my door there is room to display pictures or wall hangings, so decided to make a wall hanging for August from the book mentioned above. The...

Went with a friend up to Blackfoot, Idaho yesterday to a fabric shop and was able to buy the outer border for my wall hanging. To day I plan on working on this project. I have until Aug to finish it but don't want to wait until the last minute. Will keep you all posted on my progress. ...

I recently "inherited" a Singer Featherweight from my mother, and the "practice" cellphone case that I made for my phone and my kindle was my first major project on it. For the first one, I paused the video at each step and performed the step and wrote it down to make the instructions that I...
