Off and On Topic-How did I get into this by Dawn In Alberta
The off topic part is that today I had my stairs done, carpeting is now gone and lament wood flooring is down. It looks great it should also help with the allergies, but not much since I am also allergic to my cats but as they say an allergy pill a day keeps the wheezing at bay as well as the...

Who would have known? by Alice
A group of five quilting friends got together over the summer to make some charity baby quilts. One lady is brand new to quilting, so we thought this was an easy project and would help her learn some basics. Also, it is a requirement of our Guild to submit at least one quilt a year for...

using stripes by Anne Rogers[_3_]
I have some Christmas fabric that I found reduced, I'm just planning what to do with it. One piece is stripy, I'm just wondering if anyone had any ideas for what to do with it - I think I know the various options for binding, I'd also thought of using it for the border, either mitered, or with...

A new machine!!!....actually, two new machines! by Alice
I attended the PA Quilt Extravaganza last Thursday and spent my time trying out machines. I'd been thinking and talking about a new machine for a couple years. About an hour before closing, I made up my mind and bought a Babylock 6600 Quest! It has every feature imaginable (except...

Husqvarna Sapphire by teleflora
I just found out that Husqvarna has released a Sapphire 870 in Europe. I don't know when it will be released here in the States. It has what it calls "Selective Thread Cutter". I guess that means it's automatic. It has the mirror image mode. That's not something I use, but my friend is...

new quilter Braves Fan - Pictures of 2 choices of design by Braves Fan
Ok... Here are my two choices. I really like the choice one, but something isn't quite right about it. So I think I'm going to end up going with choice 2. I just like the 4 box squares in the choice 1. If anyone can come up with a way to even it out or find out what makes it look like...

two pics added by Idahoqltr[_2_]
I just added pics of my two latest WIPs at end of album http://good-times.webshots.com/album/560186280pMUpLB The fireworks need more rayon threads stitched around outside edges. The bargello heart has a long ways to go, but it goes pretty fast when I work on it.

quarter-square triangles? by Karen, Queen of Squishies
Do you draw those lines on the fabric criss-cross both ways and sew both ways all in one fell swoop? Then cut both ways and have four cute little sets of quarter-square triables? Or is it done in two steps? Never done this before. Thanks, Karen, Queen of Squishies --...
