a challenge by
Jessamy
It occurred to me today (while I had a house full of visitors) that it might
be really intimidating for a person to introduce themselves into a room full
of strangers at a social event and that usually the hostess would do some
intro's and make sure that the person is looked after and happy.

OT REPOST Caramel recipe by
Leslie & The Furbabies in MO.
I've received quite a few emails asking for the recipe, so I am posting it
again. I'm really pleased everybody is enjoying the recipe!
First a few caveats- brown sugar always seems to have tiny to not so tiny
lumps in it. I put the measured brown sugar in a big bowl and sift thru it
with my...

OT Prayers for DH requested by
AliceW
My cell phone often rings at work so when it rang today I had no reason to
think anything of it. But then I noticed that it was my FILs house number.
He never called my cell phone, he always called the house. I answered it to
hear my SILs voice. She had very sad news for me and was not able...

finishing this quilt top!

Musicmaker
Karen showed me a picture of a quilt that I'm just obsessing about and
want to make my own- but she doesn't remember where she got this
picture. Is this a quilt that any of you have made/designed etc? If
I make it and find that I should've given credit to someone - I Ought
to Know! ...

when quilters take over the world by
Karen, Queen of Squishies
Polly said when quilter's take over the world things are going to be a lot
different. So let's dream a little.
When quilters take over the world I will never have to change my rotary
blade, it will always cut like a knife through soft butter.
Next?

Mom's Last Quilt by
joan8904 in Bellevue Nebraska
http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2887870060062000453xYgDsG
Well, it had to be done. I'd always joked with Mom that she couldn't
die until this quilt was finished. She didn't keep her end of that
bargain and I inherited the quilt top. :
Originally, this was to be an entry in the Ky...

need a hand project by
Anne Rogers[_2_]
next Tuesday, I have to go to an evil sleep study, where I spend the day
attempting to nap every 2hrs, but being woken up after 20mins on the off
chance I do go to sleep. Doesn't sound fun, it also means there will be huge
chunks of time when I have nothing to do, so I was thinking of preparing...

Crayons anyone? by

There have been magazine articles recently on the possibilities of using
crayons for quilt blocks. One was wildly colored tropical fish, another was
flowers with shading and a bit of machine embroidery.
Two of my sisters are retired first grade school teachers and I asked

Hurrah! (OT) by
Marcella Peek
We just finished my sons Eagle Scout project! We made 50 (!) owl
nesting boxes. He turns 18 tomorrow so we finished just in time.
I am so tired of wielding a saw, drill or paintbrush!
I must say some of my quilting tools came in handy - graph paper for
figuring out the most efficient cutting...

No quilting for awhile. by
John
As some of you may know, We had 22 windows installed in the house and,
she who must be obeyed has,"suggested", that now would be a good time
to make new curtains for most of the house. Lined curtains, that is.

Sort of OT, but not exactly ;) by
Sandy
I'm looking for a pattern for a backpack, which is the OT part of this
message. However, it might be quilted, and it's definitely intended to
be used at quilt shows, so that's why I marked "not exactly". ;)
I have one pattern, but I'm not really thrilled with it. I'm looking for
something with...
