Kali Geometric Pattern Generator: Redux by
[email protected]
In the thread I started a while ago about color palettes, the subject
of the title came up, and since I also have an interest in
tessellation designs, I looked up the original thread Jack started
back in January, looked up the rest of the designs he posted, and
downloaded the generator myself...

Poll - quilting rooms by
frood
I'm enrolled in a Quilt University class called Studio Makeover. It has made
me start thinking about how people set up their quilting space. I'm
wondering how many people have a room dedicated to their use. Do you have a
room for quilting? Do you quilt/teach/write/etc for money? or just...

What would you do? by
Debbie
Hi all,
Just thought I'd get some opinions on a problem that has come up.
When people find out you make quilts they all want one. Problem is, I don't
mind making relatives one for free, but my MIL has asked me to make her
bosses one each (she has two bosses) for Christmas. She says she will pay...

Ok, You asked for it by
John
Well after an extended session today here is my latest quilt. The
infamous "Quilt from Hell".
Vital statistics: 66" x66"
1-1/2" finished squares of contrasting diagonals.
Much blood sweat and tears.

I'm going to go and lay down now.

Quick and easy! :D by
Sandy
When I was in Flagstaff for camp last month, I saw some adorable little
cell phone cases at the LQS there. The pattern was *almost* ready to be
printed, and I had them send me one when it was finished. Today I've
made three of these little things -- each one only takes a very little
time to...

OT Pastry Wars by
NightMist
I have seen more of my relatives recently than I have in the last thirty
years. After they get past the "My you are looking well!" or, "I thought
you were sick!" stage, they have tended to fall back on "What are you
doing for the holidays?" This usually comes around to cooking as a safe
topic...

Making quilts for relatives by
Pat in Virginia
Sooner or later I think every quilter gets a request from
family/friends for a commissioned quilt. Now I am faced with one
of those requests. The person wants a queen size quilt in certain
colors in a 'Country' Pattern. "Do you have an extra quilt I
could buy? Or maybe you could make me a quilt?" ...

Questions for Hug Hostesses by
Lizzy Taylor
Diana Curtis wrote:
Id like to open a discussion about making Hugs or group quilt projects.
There is nothing more emotional than making a Hug, it has to be one of the
most joyful things we can do with our art. Having participated in a few now,

OT cooking stoves and hand vacs by
Polly Esther
When I first was introduced to this group, we had just moved to the Swamp
and were rebuilding a kitchen. When asked for your ideas on kitchen
creation, the input was just wonderful. Now, well . . . maybe not now but
soon, the stove I love is going to need to be replaced. Please share your...

Rulers by
Sherry Starr
Does anyone have a favorite ruler? I'm just talking a regular ruler, not
the triangle ones, just the regular straight ruler. I have a Quickline II
by Nancy Crow that is 3 x 18. I love this ruler. It has all the markings
in black, and the ruler itself is clear. I have another one that is...

World quilt help by
Shona in NZ
Hello all,
I have an idea and thought I might get some ideas from your collective
wisdom.
I have a friend who just loves world maps. He will sit for hours looking at
the one hanging on his wall. So I thought it would be fitting to make him a
world quilt of sorts. He REALLY likes my NZ critter...

Singer featherweight, newer model vs. older model by
Beth Pierce
I am getting involved in quilting classes at my local quilting store
and am considering a lightweight machine to take to and from class.
I've been looking at the new featherweights, and see that they are 10
lbs., which is a "workable" weight. The question I have is, does
anyone know how many...

Everybody Out! by
Polly Esther
Take a flashlight and screwdriver with you. I want you to go around to the
vent thing from your clothes dryer, open it, peer inside and check for
troubles. If they're generally unimportant, at least scrape the fuzzies
from the flap so it will close properly and not permit any critters easy...

Quick and Easy? by
pat on the green
This is the first 'thread' I have started since the changeover.
I am envisaging a scenario (the exact circumstances don't matter at
all), when I would dearly love to make small bed quilts for two girls (7
and 4) and a cot quilt for the new baby brother.
However, if I do embark on this project, I...

Your Favorite Block/Blocks? by

I have not been quilting long but through these past couple years of
participating in many BOMs and such, I have come to realize that I am
attracted to certain blocks over the others, and the one that has held
my fondness is the Weathervane. For some reason, this is one that I
