I am putting the satin binding on the little quilt I'm working on for my youngest grand-daughter. Yeeks, I'm sure I'm doing it the very most difficult way possible. But too late to change now and it looks like it's going to be ok. I had planned to use ribbon but I couldn't find any that didn't...

I can't find a reliable site to post a trade request so I thought I'd try here. I have a collection of Bali handdyed quilt shop quality FQ fabrics that I'm wanting to trade for KS Troubles/Thimbleberries FQ's. I have approximately 50 to 60 ( I need to go count them lol) All are Bali's and I can...

If you have a Kilwin's Ice Cream near you, they normally give away their plastic ice cream containers - all washed and pretty. They are the large ones that they use in the cases for ice cream cones. These make great wastebaskets in your sewing room when you have QI's who like to overturn your...

I received this from a friend today, thought you'd enjoy! Michelle A teacher is explaining biology to her 4th grade students. 'Human beings are the only animals that stutter,' she says. A little girl raises her hand. 'I had a kitty-cat who stuttered.'

Not sure if anyone can help me here or not, but figured this is as good a place to start as any. Does anyone own a cabinet style Necci (don't know the model number yet)? If so, can you give me clear, concise directions on how the bobbin is replaced after being rethreaded (thread over, thread...

I know we have discussed this before, but I didn't need the answers then, and I do now. A friend--not me---used way too much fabric softener and now water just slides off her washcloths. I was thinking that LOTS of washings with vinegar might wash the fabric softener out. Any other ideas?? ...

I need some help/thoughts. Several years ago one of the gentlemen and good friend that I worked for at a large corporation asked me if I could use all his old neckties in my quilting. I said sure. Well, I just learned that he passed away recently. But, before he did, he made his daughter promise to...

Thank you, thank you! My first ever from this group! It's from my Swap Buddy. And there was a cute card with a wiggly worm. I've cut it up already. Some 10½" strips will go into a Chinese Coin Calendar Quilt that I am making through another group I belong to. Hopefully I'll be sewing more of...
