Where do you find the time? by Carolyn McCarty
Okay, I'm in a bit of a bind here and am looking for suggestions. Since I'm single, there's no one to share the daily household and yardwork chores (forget the cat, her only job is to love and be loved). I live across the street from MSM, who needs a fair bit of attention and I am also her...

Bragging by Marcella Peek
Last fall one of the local shop owners recommended me to P&B fabrics to make a sample for them. They actually called (yippee) and had me make samples and patterns for crib accessories for a fabric line. The designer made a baby quilt out of the fabrics. The fabrics are finally out and the...

I recently purchased EQ6 for my wife and am furious to learn of their licensing practices. At the end of the post I will include links to blogs and posts by other users discussing EQ6's licensing. My blog explains it all: http://techfettish.wordpress.com/ I chose EQ6 because of how highly it was...

least favorite part of quilting by Taria
After reading Lorraine's msg on borders and my spending the week fussing over borders I think I vote they are my least favorite part of making a quilt. Figuring out what I want, calculating it, working out the pattern. All of it. I really like little about making borders. When I think about...

What the heck? by teleflora
I was at TSWLTH yesterday. I overheard a conversation between the woman behind the cutting table and a customer getting fabric cut: Store Gal: So, what are you making? (I hate when they ask me this) Customer: Oh, my sister has me making baby quilts. Store Gal: I'm a quilter too, it's a great...

okay, 'fess up by Karen, Queen of Squishies
(I have sent the quilt police off on a wild flying goose chase, so have no fear) Do you always trim off your bunny ears when you sew HSTs? Karen, Queen of Squishies -- and when you get the chance to sit it out or dance.......

Cutting Tips by felwyn
Does anyone have any rotary cutting tips? My finished blocks are always a little smaller than I planned, not much, maybe a 1/16th of an inch smaller, but over the length of the quilt, it makes a difference. All the blocks are equal, so accuracy is not the problem, but I wonder if I should...

A Recapitulation by Edward W. Thompson
1. In response to an OT post concerning Steve Irwin's untimely demise, I was critical of the sentiments being expressed pointing out the man made his fortune tormenting animals for the amusement of the 'ignorant'. The response was a stream of abuse, at least I think it was abuse. From that I...

Holiday quilting warning by Polly Esther
You might want to pre-wash any fabrics to be used for holiday stitching if you want them to be merry and bright. The brilliant reds and greens I used for placemats and table runner bled and faded to muddy toast. Probably this could happen with any other color plan if you are into a magenta and...

little happinesses - both on and off topic by Queen of Squishies
I have sold 6 Starflake patterns in my new undertaking. I have begun getting some new piano students, which I have wanted to do. My swap star was voted 'not too dark', so I am still in the ball park there. DH can now put on his own socks, and is improving greatly with his...

Please help me to name this quilt by judy in fort worth
In my online album, under quilt photos 2005, you will find a baby quilt that I just finished for my niece. The baby is due in October and we do not know yet if it is a boy or a girl. This will be MSM's first great grandchild and she will probably never see the baby. (MSM lives in Illinois and GD...

Contemplating siggie swap by Georg
So if I were to host an RCTQ siggie swap, what do I do about postage? This is something that does baffle me. How would I cope with self-addressed stamped envelopes from overseas? I know I could not afford to foot the bill for everyone's international postage no matter how many FQs were gained in...

I feel so stupid....... by Bonnie NJ
I was cleaning up my sewing room and in the process I filled my trash bin. I took out the bag and threw it into the trashcan. The trash went out on Friday. I started looking for my accessory box that went with my "new" 401 and couldn't find it anywhere and then it dawned on me that I had tossed it...
