I have had this idea haunting me for some time and want to toss it at y'all and see what you throw back at me. In the entryway of a new house there's a stone wall- maybe to the ceiling and maybe not- maybe real rocks or maybe the man-made type. Some type of lighting would be in the ceiling or...

Well, this morning was only supposed to be mildly stressful as I was planning on taking son to school, then daughter to preschool with plenty of time to get to the doctor's office for my thyroid biopsy. It didn't work out that way. Karen posted that I had IMd her from the ER on Valentine's day...

An email from The Quilt Show says that the magazine Quiltmania named Ricky Tims one of the 9 Exceptional Men in the quilting world. So who were the other 8? It doesn't mention on the Quiltmania website. Apparently it's a French magazine? -- Kay Ahr in...

I have six drawers that I sort my fabric stash into, each drawer is one color of the rainbow - I start at the top with red and pink, then orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. (Don't ask where the multi- colors and neutrals are - 'cause they are mostly homeless!) As I was packing my fabric, I...

For the holidays, my husband purchased the Magic Box Elite as a gift for me. He told the service person that I had a Baby Lock Ellure ( he purchased the machine for me so I know he knows the correct machine) They sold him a Magic Card for the Bernia. I was not able to use the Box until just...

Yesterday I ripped 8 blocks that I had sewn the ends onto backwards, in other words facing the wrong direction. Got them all re-sewn and quit for the day. This morning I come in to assemble them into the larger scheme of things, and find that I have sewn them on facing the right direction...

My geese are all flying straight, and my corners are on the correct side of said geese. I made four Oregon Trail blocks for the July lottery. In the Lottery blocks album http://community.webshots.com/user/hicall Karen, Queen of Squishies -- and when you get the chance to sit it out or...

One of my goals in quilting was to do a quilt in baby or tumbling blocks. I have always understood that the only way to do this particular pattern was to use the English paper piecing method. This has been off putting for me as I didn't want to do all of that hand sewing for each and every block on...

I stumbled across these pics and thought they were cute! Reminded me of all the postcards folks were doing! I guess I don't eat enough altoids -- because I'm not sure how big those tins are... or what they will hold... but the are...

http://www.kiwiquilts.co.nz/Free+Patterns.html nayy. the swag is a bit of a no brainer but cute for xmas or any holiday. i could see it in a babys room...rainbow effect maybe would be cute. might fiddle the size of those hexs too. i not fond of the bottom of the hex bag tho.

This is a totally new thing for me and I can't think of any other groups I'm currently on where there would be a reasonable chance of a good number of people having some experience of these. Basically my question is fatigue, did you experience fatigue as an initial side effect and if so, did it...

I keep coming across metal bobbins. I must have had dozens! Anyway, if you want them, send me an email at snipsnstitches (see below) with your address. I will be looking for RCTQ folks. (Just read Polly's post.) -- Boca Jan Florida - Land of the...

Hi I use to come here often- sort of fell off after my mom died. I need some help though finding a paper piecing pattern and you came to mind. My dentist who is a sweetie just finished a load of very hard work on my mouth. I'd like to make him a small hanging quilt made up of paper pieced TOOTH...

I just stitched 419" of bias vines on a quilt top. It went really well and I'm pleased with the results - but - (you knew that was coming) there must be a better way. Someone here should be our Foot Fetish Queen. I'm wondering if I had used a 'for curves' foot or something else if things...

Hello all I have been away quite a lot scuba diving. :-)) Just got back from a week in the Maldives with Sue (who didn't dive - just chilled out on the small cruiser). Anyway! Just to let the few of you who remember me that I am coming to the competion of my HMS Daring Quilt. Going to need...

Yesterday my very DDDDDH surprised me with an email from work saying he had purchased one of these for our den. OHHHhhhhh myyyy. grin grin grin I can feel those warm rays on my sore tired old body already. It will be here in just 2 weeks! http://hightechhealth.com/html/sauna_main.htm NAYY

Finished the first quilt for 2008: a bright version of an "eye spy" quilt based on the pattern for Night and Day on my site. This one was actually fun to piece, though the stitch-in-the ditch quilting was boooring...I almost NEVER do such simple quilting, but this quilt begged me for it. I did a...
