I ordered from Mill Girls http://www.millgirlquiltshop.com/ late one night this week..... so late I even misspelled my own domain name.... now that's just sad isn't it?! But not to worry, my ordered was filled & shipped the very next day and they left me a note in my account at their shop site...

Well, my foot surgery is a week old today. I had a huge pressure bandage on for a week that was very heavy. It came off today and I got a good look at the work he did ---not good quilting stitches by a long shot, but good for intended purpose. Wow, is my foot cut up, including a screw in my...

I've been watching a show this morning, a fund raiser for my local PBS station, called "The Art of Quilting". If you get the opportunity to see it, please, please do!! It has some of the most amazing quilts I've ever seen, and some really fascinating techniques. Nothing very traditional - but some...

Hi Everyone, I am new to the group. I am not a quilter but certainly a fan. I am a scroll saw artist. I create wood portraits. In a way, it is like quilting with wood. I learned to create patterns by watching "Simply Quilts". I recently was looking for ways to market my work, when I came across a...

Hi, this is my first post. I found this site as I was searching for info on how to applique and I'm thrilled! I have only been quilting for about an year and have done some log cabin memory quilts and prayer quilts with group of girls I teach with who are also learning!!! Anyway, i would like to...

I have put up for auction on ebay.ca some needlework magazines from 1978-1979. They are in excellent condition and still have some great patterns in them. They are a mixture of filet crochet, knitting, crochet, quilting, and various other needlework...

Somebody help me! I thought I'd send our shameless beggar in the Netherlands a few - maybe a dozen - squares for her hexagon creation. How can something so very simple become such an excruciating hurdle? I went to the US postage calculator. First, they wanted to know which Netherlands. ...

Is there anyone out there that received damage from the tornados or are close to the area? Can we (RCTQ) send some hug quilts - maybe for the children? -- Boca Jan Florida - Land of the Hurricanes http://community.webshots.com/user/BocaJan

I am watching the US weather in absolute awe. So sad for the parents of the children killed in the school hall. Hope all continue to stay safe. -- Cheryl & the Cats in OZ o o o o ( Y ) ( Y ) Boofhead Donut

I hope you didn't have any damage from the storms. DH & I were watching it on the radar today. Prayers for everyone in all the tornadoes. Sherry Starr

http://www.geocities.com/rctq_quilters/ All right!! We got photo pages, blog pages, and longarm quilter pages!! What have I missed? What doesn't work? What did I misspell? -- Be my second pair of eyes, please. Now I want to find a cutesy little graphic for each page. That way you can...

I finished the "girly" quilt top this afternoon and I think it came out fine. I am going to pin it up tomorrow and quilt it and it should be done early next week and then I will post pictures. I used 2" for the sashes and mitered the outside sash and I will miter the binding. The binding is going...

My current piecing project is almost finished(just the top). All I have left is the outer border. The directions say to cut the outer border along the salvages. I think I know why they suggest doing this - no piecing of the border to make long enough and more stable/less distortion for...

Am I automatically included in the directory since I am a member or do I need to contact someone to get in it?

Do I need a walking sewing machine foot to do continuos-line quilting? Brenda

We have a pile of blocks sitting the floor in the design of the Rastafarian flag. It just sort of happened, they were intended to complement the colours of some animal prints for a cot quilt. Obviously, there are more appropriate things to pair them with. Anybody here got a ganja-leaf block...

http://www.plover.com/%7Emjd/misc/quilt/blocks/ (Clicking on any block brings up a larger image.) All the blocks consist of sixteen squares made of half-square triangles. This would be great in any two colors with sashing of one of the colors. Just speed-piece the triangle pairs and away you...
