finally back online! by
Mystified One[_2_]
After a long hiatus, I have a new computer and am back online. Took 2
months to get the cable company to come out and hook up my internet, and
here I am! Now the big question: Does anybody remember me, or has it been
too long?

Do any of you plan to visit the AQS Show in Nashville next week?
My wife and I go to have a nice week-end escape that's only 80 miles

just icing...

Carol S.
Hi folks.
Sorry to impose in a 'quilting' discussion group, but most of the other
appropriate groups seem to be inactive. This one is jumping!
My question is: Doe anyone know of a microwave method for using tie-dye
cords? I know I can bundle the fabric or tee shirt & tie, but in 'mic'

My Little Indulgence. by
Sherry
I bought a Roxanne thimble the other day. I am so proud of it I just
had to post. It's everything I'd
hoped it would be and honestly just an extension of my finger, so
comfortable and easy to use.
I was the one who never could find a thimble that stayed on, and I
tried them all. I'd finally...

Raggedy Ann/ Andy hair by
Butterflywings
Try # 4
After mumbleity mumble years, I'm working on DD's RaggedyAnn/Andy dolls.
Thus my questions:
When you 'do' the hair, how close do you put it together (they only say 3
rows--but that looks sparse to me),
AND do you cut the yarn or leave it in loops?
