I'm going to take a class that calls for me to bring a border print with defined strips of design. What should I be looking for? Maureen

Well, I started working on DHs Mariner's Compass finally :-) I have the central medallion almost all done - it's fusible applique, but it was loads of fun to play with. Maybe next time, I will do a pieced MC, who knows sigh. I am stitching all of the bits and pieces down, having discovered...

Dear God: Why do humans smell the flowers, but Â*seldom, if ever, smell one another?  Dear God: Â*When we get to heaven, can we sit on your couch? Or is it still the same Â*old story?  Dear God: Â*Why are there cars named after the jaguar, the cougar, the mustang, the Â*colt, the stingray,...

Okay, I've really had enough. I got up this morning and there was a good eight inches of snow. I know that I live in Alaska, but this is unusual even for the Anchorage area. I really did not need treacherous roads this morning for my commute to school. There is no grass showing again. ...

I told you ladies about my neighbor and her old New Home Sewing machine and thanks to you all I finally found a manual for it on the net. Printed the manual and read it. what fun. The thing that caught my eye was about skipped stitched. Dull needles. Although the SM was purchased in 1911 it was...

I checked the mileage from my hotel in Salt Lake City and I am close to Sandy. There are several quilt shops there. Can anyone recommend the best one to visit? I will be in SLC until April 30th so I think I can find a few quilt and bead shops in the area but someone had recommended the shop...

First, would the person looking for a mini quilt fabric for a dollhouse please contact me? After a computer meltdown we had to reformat the hard drive, so I have lost the info. Just spent the past several days re-doing the computer. Most of the necessary things are up and running, but quite a bit...

When we were aheadin home, t'was my 'job' as Navigation Engineer to watch for signs for 'bed and board' each evening.....we did "catch as catch can' during the day for eats. Late one afternoon, I saw a sign that had a SMILING GATOR on it! They were advertising their Gator Hotel / this exit....

I went to check the mail today, since it is so gorgeous, went for a walk to the park with the kids and asked the oldest (almost 3 yrs old) of she wanted to check the mail. She said yes, so we went ( the mail gets checked about every 2 weeks around our house LOL)! I pulled out one hand addressed...

Survived our retreat! Finished the majority of two queen/king sized tops -- a Garden Twist and a Snowball-9 Patch. They need borders which I will add later this week (I HOPE!!). I also have 9 of 12 little kitty blocks nearly finished (they are fused in 30's fabrics on white-on-white and I'm...

I don't know how many of you know about this but tomorrow the trucker's are planning a shutdown. They have had enough. I am a trucker's wife and I know why they are going thru. To learn a little more about this go to....

Grrr. *Thought* I knew what I was doing. My unfinished Drunkard's Path block is 6 3/4. Finished--6 1/4. I thought the insert would be 4 1/2" and I would cut out 4 1/4. Now --now that I've cut into my gorgeous midnight blue batik--it's being grumpy. Sewed more creases in that poor block than I...

I'm looking for a copy of the Winter issue (Marie Osmond on the cover) of this magazine. Does anyone have it they would like to swap for a little fabric? (I'm specifically looking for the Diamond Knot pattern.) Any help is much appreciated! Thanks in advance!!!!
