FABRIC BOWLS by KJ
I just finished a couple little fabric bowls using the new double sided adhesive "firm flex"...much like Timtex. Love the stuff! It has a much more uniform thickness which makes for less wrinkling in the bowls. I made one bowl from Valentine fabrics in which I will put heart candy for a friend's...

2 year old choosing fabric! by Morag in Oxford
Hi all, Today I went with my not yet 2 year old to the local fabric shop to pick up some polycotton to finish off cushion covers. They don't have a massive selection of quilting fabric, but there was a nice pack of brightly coloured plains that I thought would be perfect for a quilt for the baby...

A Quick Update - Some OT by NanaV
It was a bit over a week ago I took a self-imposed time off to try and deal with stuff in my life. I just wanted to stop in and say "hi" before disappearing again. I'm about to put the label on the anniversary quilt. Thankfully there wasn't much to finish up and I have been able to whip stitch...

Happy Dance :) by Sandy Foster
Sunday night I finished another quilt, and today I took pics and put them on my site at http://home.earthlink.net/~sfoster1/sampler.html (at the bottom of the page). This is one that started out to be a block challenge in the online francophone group I belong to, but it became something of a...

author, author!! by Valkyrie
A while back one of our threads forked off to favorite books. I can't remember which newsgroup it was in so I'm cross posting to cover all bases. Somebody mentioned an author who was solving mysteries while dragging her sewing machines around with her, or something like that. I actually did write...

my sewing machine is sick by Marijke
Sigh. My Husqvarna Iris is in the sewing machine hospital right now. Something is wonky with her bobbin. I'll find out tomorrow the prognosis and the cost, but please, spare a thought for poor Iris, all by herself among sewing machines and sergers she's never met before. She had only just begun...

O. MY. GOSH. Suprise S.E.X. !! by hfw
Had to go pick up a batt I'd ordered at a not so local QS, so figured I'd go to the JoAnn's up that way with my coupon. Get there and they're not honoring the coupons...because everything in the store is at least 40% off! Fabrics were a 2 yd minimum, at 60% off, or 70% if you finished a bolt....

Thread colors for MQ (long) by Pat in Virginia
some time ago someone here asked about using more than one color quilting thread on a quilt. I said that while I had never done it, I thought it would work okay. HA! I inadvertently lied. Since then I noticed that my little Down Under Santa WH has at least 4 colors of thread. Yesterday I was...

pout: can't do any stitching well today by Monique Reed
Because my dear QI kitty Mir accidentally bit the h**l out of my left index finger (right through the first joint) and it is infected and swollen like a sausage. I've got ten days of antibiotics thanks to that little furball. (I've been researching the joint problems, meningitis, tendinitis,...
