Black and White Quilt by edhquilter
I have a lot of nice black, white & red fabric. I am having a devil of a time trying to decide on a quilt pattern for this. I thought maybe some of you might have some ideas. I will be making a queen size quilt. I enjoy reading your posts. Pat

Computer problem, not quite OT by Sartorresartus
OK, so the sewing room is up and running. I've reaquainted myself with my Bernie Artista 180; even re-watched the VHS. I know I can't attach it to my current computer via USB, and even if I could apparently (please tell me if I'm wrong about this) it isn't compatible with Vista, and Bernina are...

Will will I learn by Cindy Schmidt
You would think that after 5 years of sewing colorguard flags, twice a year now that I would be more careful when sewing them. I can't tell you how many times just tonight alone that I have had to rip some out because there was an additional layer underneath. This stuff is so slick that it...

Color catchers? by Polly Esther[_5_]
Wow. When my Puss in Bonnets quilt bled and turned everything hot pink and you recommended Color Catchers, I was impressed. Today, I needed to wash my new, best, white knit pants. Tossed in a Color Catcher. Oh boy and wow. They look like new. I know this isn't a big event to...

printed muslin? by Lynn
Hi all -- I used to read rctq ages ago (before new motherhood took over my life). I was just wondering if anyone knew where I could find patterned muslin. Or, if that's not possible, at least had some tips on buying the softest white muslin. Here is what is motivating me -- love the idea of...

Warning about an online store by Jo Gibson[_2_]
I thought potential customers should be warned, particularly international customers. I placed an order on the 19th of June which has still not shown up, and after contacting the owner, it now transpires that the order was shipped to Canada. Now, I've been ordering online for what - 10 years?...

mislaid fabric found! by Mary
Over a year ago I found a really neat fabric, purchased 3 yards of it, and when I got home I went through my stash and found complimentary fabrics for the backing of a lap quilt and lining of a tote bag. I put it all into a bag and then tucked it away. And I tucked it away so well I couldn't find...

15-91 by Cindy Schmidt
Thanks for the info Leslie. Just wanted to make sure that I wasn't being taken. I did go to Ebay and seen that some of them are around $100 plus shipping. But since I can't test drive those, this one looks kinda good. I might go back in Monday and drive her again. How do I find out when she...

Which pillowcase method? by Susan Laity Price
The boxes of Novelty fabrics are overflowing. As I tried to straighten them I decided some of the yardage pieces would make good pillowcases for the 1 Million Pillowcase Challenge. Those who have held marathon pillowcase sewing sessions, which sewing method do you prefer? The "burrito" method on...

Q's for the serger owners here by AuntK
Hi all, I'm entertaining purchasing a serger. Not really sure why except that I don't have one. I'm pretty sure it will be of the used variety as I don't want to spend a bunch of $$$ at this point for something I'm not sure I'll use all that much. I've been doing some looking on craigslist and...

Best stabiliser for knit fabrics? by Jo Gibson[_2_]
Specifically t-shirts? I am appliquing things to t-shirts for Baby T, and I have tried several different stabilisers, only to have them "tunnel" when removed. I tried several that tear away, and I have tried a couple that stay in after you've satin stitched around your design. So which...

Argggggh! by Sunny[_2_]
I hate paper piecing, especially when I'm brain-addled. But no other way to get those sharp pointies for a sunburst. I'm waiting for the sewing machine that will do difficult, precision stitching for you. You know how bread machines work? Well I want a sewing machine like that so when I'm...
