Hello everyone I know there is help out there so I'm asking!! My best friend is expecting her first baby; a girl!!. She's due in August. I found the absolute perfect pattern for a baby quilt for her. http://siterepository.s3.amazonaws.com/00580201009081059193546.jpg

I recently found (on an online shop) a fabric which had green fields and houses, and the perspective was from an airplane looking down. I thought it would make a good playmat for small children to run their cars and trains over. Now I cannot find it anywhere! I seem to recall it was a new...

Take a look: http://hartcottagequilts.com/his9.htm When you look at history of machine quilting it goes back longer than you might think. I am kind of partial to the frame that hangs from the ceiling myself. Maybe there is something to go from with that idea.

Here's the link - the quilt is mine! Well, the quilt belongs to the Navan-Vars Church but I claim pride of workmanship.... http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/tag/quilts jennellh

The pattern Snugly Bugly, Stella Divine by Amy Bradley called to me. The pattern calls for what we call raw-edge appliqué - not acceptable with the probability of brutal laundry so I'm forced to improvise. When I came to the eyes, after studying them a minute, I realized that they are a circle...

Baby quilt for the surrogate baby I'm pregnant with. All machine quilted. Pics though of the quilt are taken before I washed ironed and starched it for presenting it to mommy. But I'm really impressed that it lays perfectly flat. No wrinkles or puckers, so we must be improving. It should be the...

Sold my Singer Featherweight sewing machine this morning. With the way the economy is heading for myself, I needed the money. Went fast....first lady that called bougth it....and fell in love with it. Her first name is also Donna. She makes Prayers Quilts and also Quilts of Honor for Madison...

Yay!! It's actually been a while since I made a quilt of any kind. However, as I'm finishing up projects, I'm also getting ready to get to work on an Areil quilt for the daughter of a friend. I have the first blocks cut out, but they have been sitting on the design wall for about a year. I think...

Hi All, I usually just lurk and really enjoy the posts. I've gotten lots of inspiration from your photo sites and help with problems from the posts. Thanks lots!!! Now for my reason for posting--I've completed the mall crawl except for one shop The Thrifty Needle. I think I've gone to every page of...

Just realised my post got in with another thread with "Happy Dance" as the name - sorry about that! So, with not much time to spare I did finish the baby quilt before my God daughter's (well, not quite, but I only know the Danish term for this) Christening on Sunday past. Here are pictures of...

First let me say that TSWLTH here in Woodland has a well deserved reputation for being quilter UN-friendly. I know other JoAnn's are different, but this one is not a pleasure to shop at. My wholesaler was out of WonderUnder, and I desperately needed more. I head off the TSWLTH with coupon in hand,...

Hey y'all, On eBay I won a bunch o' pieces this woman had cut for a quilt and never used - a purple hand-dye, a lavender print, and white squares with diagonals already drawn on in pencil for making rectangles with white corners, whatever that's called. Anyhoo, I opened the box and it reeks of...

I can finally,almost, read the computer screen now, and hope to get back to my quilts very soon. Three BsOM to do yet but I don't trust myself with the rotary cutter yet. However I would like to ask the Australians present where they get their patterns. I finally found someone in America who would...

Luisa, non penso che nessunno abbia pensato che tentavi di generare una discussione, infatti e stato molto informativo e mi sa che molti qui (inclusa georg) ti volevano ringraziare per compartire con noi i frutti della tua ricerca! scusa che il mio italiano non e buono, e da 10 anni che non lo...

She is doing OK. Still not eating well so they had to put in a feeding tube. She is getting physical therapy 3 times a day now. Hopefully she will be moved into rehab this week. DH came home yesterday. -- Mary http://community.webshots.com/user/mardor1948

Hi First of all HI THERE and sorry I haven't been around much recently. Now to business... I have been asked to make a quilt for a family expecting baby No.1 just after Christmas. They live in Bogota, Colombia. The person requesting the quilt (aunt to be) has had 2 baby quilts off me -one in...

I know this isn't quilt related, but I'll bet that most everybody here has read at least some Judy Blume books at one time or another. http://www.nytimes.com/2004/04/08/movies/08BLUM.html In a nutshell, Disney has apparently agreed to produce _Deenie_ and has taken options on more books. It is...

Dear Rita, It is with great pleasure that I sing to you: Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday dear Rita Happy Birthday to you Butterfly (Yesterday was soooooooooo crazy, we didn't even get out to get any groceries--as one kidlet was leaving, the other was walking...

Hi! As I mentioned in a reply to someone's question about challenges, I had entered the Hoffman challenge this year. I found out that I did not win a prize :-( but they did keep my quilt for the traveling exhibit. My quilt is part of group "E" and will be at the Northwest Quilting Expo at the...
