So, into the store Bert and I walked and the one lady from the other night greeted me very warmly, as did the two other workers, and the second lady from the other night was busy. But, the first lady remembered that I had been in buying reds for "the neatest project" and came right over to...

I used to have the ability to click on a link that was in someone's post and up would pop the addy. My explorer will no longer do that. Does anyone know if I lost a setting? I use Outlook Express for my newsgroups. It is a pain in the padoodie to cut and paste the addie when it worked so well...

I needed a bit of a break from piecing so made me an autumn purse. I finished a diaper bag a couple days ago that's pictured in the same album http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/2919631260053386571ZyuNrw -- Mary http://community.webshots.com/user/mardor1948?vhost=community

One of the radio stations here sponsors a weekly (usually) get-together called Wine Down Wednesday. They get a wine company to serve samples of wine, arrange for some nibblies so the public doesn't get too tipsy, and give away prizes. Several weeks ago I won a prize. Now keep in mind that I...

Has anybody seen a pattern for making a quilt out of used team football jerseys? My wife has asked me to see if I can locate a pattern. If you know of how I can find one please email me at thanks brother John. And Sister Janey.

My g-neice and her 1yo son need ideas to fill the days with things to see and do in and around Dundee, Scotland while her husband is busy with a seminar. They are leaving Canada on April 15th - they'll spend a couple of days in Edinburgh before travelling to Dundee. Any suggestions will be...

We get anxious about hurricanes around here - and our weather guys are upset about Alaska having a 'snow' (?) hurricane with winds up to 100 mph. Please let us know that you are not in harm's way and have prepared for loss of power and are staying safe. Polly

I've been cleaning my basement and decided to close my sewing machine up. Took off the thread, laid the spindles down, lifted up the front edge, and lowered the head into the well. Unfortunately, one side came unhinged. I will not admit to how long it took me to figure out I couldn't put it...

Bringing up the rear here, but about a week ago, jeanne showed us a site for microwave heating corn bags. I was in a hurry and just kinda thought it was about maybe something cute to microwave corn on the cob and impress my friends. Since I've already impressed my friends =), I just passed...

I can't remember who wanted yardage from my ugly fabric. I know it's rude to forget and all, but.... well I forgot anyway. Please, if you wanted some of my infamous ugly paisley on toad-spotted brown fabric, send me an email with your snail mail address. I've got plenty to go around, LOL....

I have read this before in a post ages ago that sewing on a treadle machine can make one "sexually aroused" It has a small effect on me but does wonders for my husband when I sew on it, he gets really turned on and I cant figure out why? Anyone got an answer for this?

Thank you to Charlotte Hensen and Christina (via Merry Stahel). I was so excited when I got some squishies. Didn't think they could possibly be for me. They sure made my day. I'll be sure to be using them soon. First I need to fondle a while. Cathy in Oshkosh WI

Hi everyone.... I'm doing some spring cleaning in my sewing room today. For now, I have a grouping of Coca-Cola fabrics that are up for grabs. There are 5 pieces. They were salesman samples and are odd sized, but large. I think they would equal out to at least a fat quarter each. About 27" long by...

I went to a church yard sale and there was this lonely looking older Dressmaker SM just waiting on a table for me to pick it up! It has a handle, is lightweight, has a free arm AND the extension arm, AND------was in a carrying case that wasn't made for the machine. Since it was 11:00 AM and HOT,...
