Quilts from Big Bright Scraps? by
dogmom
I finally realized why my scrap quilts don't look like the ones in all those
"quilts from scraps" books. I thought it was just that I had lousy design
taste (which may be true in any case!) but it's also that my scraps are from
25 years of sewing clothes, most recently scrubs for a vet clinic....

Applique Pattern help by
Marcella Tracy Peek
A lady at church stopped me today and asked if I had any applique
patterns for baby quilts. Seems she has three: a goose with babies, a
teddy bear and something else which I am forgetting. It's one big
applique pattern that makes up the whole quilt - think cheater panel
without the cheating ;-) ...

This is a pic of the quilt after I finished tying it. Colin is bored,
and mildly miffed that I had to push him around because he liked to try
sleeping where I was working. I finished it by self-binding the muslin
backing to the front, trimming the...

Determining fiber content by
Ann
I cleaned, sorted and organized my fabric closet today. I have a pile of
material that I'm not sure if it's cotton or poly cotton. Is there any way
to visibly tell the difference? I can tell the good quality cotton just by
the feel of it, but what I'm not sure of would be the not top quality (if...

White fabric review? by
I remember the review of different black fabrics not so long ago. I have
a red and white repro quilt coming up in the future and I would like to
get a good quality white fabric for it. I would be willing to buy a whole
bolt. I know that I would end up using it. Not looking for an optical
white;...

delurk and some questions! by
lloer
Hello,
I've recently gained an interest in quilting. I bought my used Husqvarna
Lily 545 (which is the 'quilting' Lily) in the summer as I needed a new
machine to make my wedding dress - it was a choice between the new 535 and a
used 545. At the time, I thought I wouldn't use the quilting extras...

Beautiful quilt design by
Sindir
I saw this today while my husband was looking at different patterns that I
could try. I thought it was beautiful and that I would share. Has anyone
made one like this before? What is the level of difficulty?

Hello Quilters!
I was wondering if anyone was going to A Quilter's Gathering quilt
show in New Hampshire in a couple of weeks. I have 2 quilts in the
