quilty hug gift by
Ann Adamson
I guess I don't, but I just didn't want to do it if she wasn't OK with that.
But, she said OK, so here's the URL to my photo album, and you can see the
pretty HUG quilt at the bottom.

At least, I *think* this qualifies as a HUG. But nonetheless, it's an

however, the statement should show the cheque (showing the exact amount of

along with a photocopy of your entry in the chequebook
Or, perhaps you could make a copy of the check before you mail it, along with a

Wee Village Blocks by
susan kraterfield
I'm charmed! I'd never seen these. Thank you so much for showing them to
me. Maybe *this* is my next lap quilt for the family room.
As for your question, I think it "depends". There are lots of ways to
applique; the real trouble will be if you choose the wrong way for *you*.
If you're leery,...

can stamps be used on fabric?? by
julia sidebottom
You will want to use a 'fabric dye' ink. JAF does carry this as well as
many craft stores and Rubber Stamp stores. I Rubber stamp on fabric all
the time. One of my favorite ways to rubber stamp onto fabrics is
sitting the stamp face up against velvet. Iron gently and the design
comes out on...

Acrylic Extension Table that's a box?? by
Elena
Hi! I was wondering if any of you have or remember the manufacturer of an
acrylic extension table for the sewing machine. This one is not just a
table, but a real box that you lift the lid (which is the extension ) to get
at the contents. I've seen those from Dream World and X-Actoblades...

question from the mathmatically challanged by
Shawn
OK. I want to make a type basket weave quilt and I can't figure out how
wide to cut the strips. I don't have a pattern, just trying to make
something I saw hanging in a quilt shop this summer. I can't go look at it
again because it's a 2 day drive away! I'm using 3 colours (D,M,L) in...

Book Reviews by

A little while ago, someone was asking if there were any Book Reviews
which gave honest opinions about the books. At the time I did answer
with the thought that it might be on the Quilt University site. I have
now had time to check my 'thought'. Sure enough, there they are! I'm
pleased to have...

We talked about starting a mini round robin sometime in the future.... I
think we did at least....

I'm almost ready!!!

i don't know how fine...

Enchanted View quilt by
Queen of Squishies
Have any of you ever made one of those Enchanted View or Through the Garden
Gate kind of quilts? Can you tell me why she says to quilt it AFTER you put
the black wrought iron gate on it? Seems like it would be better to quilt
it first, then put the gate on top.

Book review needed - Patchwork Quilts Made Easy by
Martha in IN
Mardi,
I have this book and would say that it is very appropriate for an
intermediate quilter. While not a "learn to quilt" book, it has some fairly
easy blocks, i. e., 9 patch, log cabin, and such. It also has appliqué and
blocks appropriate for using templates, (fan quilts). I haven't used it,...

Apparently Ricky Timms (sp) is teaching a new way to bind quilts that

Anyone tried it out? I heard the mitered corners take practice.

Holiday quilting project by
Eyren
Well. Next Friday we fly off to Canada. (Calgary, Edmonton, Rockies, maybe
Whitehorse). What to do?
I am still HQ my KS star medallion quilt. It is on a three pole frame and I am
a little over 1/3 of the way across. Would it be feasible to baste the rest
and take it to quilt on the plane? ...

Based on your limited explanation, I expect you've been dragged into
participating in the fabric version of a chain letter. Many well-meaning
people pass these on to others they know. Bottom line: unless you're at the
very top, the math doesn't work. Ever.

Machine Applique Advice by
Monique Reed
You may find that the homespuns just don't have a high-enough thread
count to not fray when manipulating edges. You are better off trying
a fusible applique (no turn under) with some sort of stitch over the
edge.
