I must share this beautiful quilt made for DD, who is 9 yrs old, by a wonderful person in Oz. I can't begin to tell you how excited my dd was to open the package and see this beautiful work of art. http://ca.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/ceridwen_rhea/detail?.dir=56b7re2&.dnm=7ad1re2.jpg&.src=ph DD...

Hi, as an on-again-off-again lurker this is the first place I thought to ask when I had a question. :) My son's toddler quilt was my second quilt and though it had no triangles, only squares and rectangles, it had *lots* of seams and pieces. Now that he's about to turn three he's really grown...

What kind of quilt-related things are you asking for or hoping that you get this holiday season? There isn't much that I need and I've got about as much fabric as I have room for, but I have asked for a bunch of the Essential Thread from Connecting Threads. http://www.connectingthreads.com/ I...

I made a t-shirt quilt for my grandson's graduation. The hardest part was planning it. I stabilized the shirts with French Fuse fusible tricot. I had it quilted -- money well spent. I hope this link works. It's a public album so you don't have to be on facebook....

My Women's Shelter HUG quilt block has curved Flying Geese in a plaid fabric, side triangles that shade from deep gold to almost white and appliqued free-floating triangles. Quite the challenging block for me! Now, it's done and you can see it in my Webshots...

I know you all must get tired of the requests for prayers but we really need some for tomorrow. My husband (Denny) had a bout with diverticulitis in the middle of October and was hospitalized for a week. He went back in on 12/9 to have the 20 inches of intestines removed. He is still in the...

Am I the only one that has these bad days where everything you do is wrong? I got my two different blocks done and the blocks that I did the applique on gave me the beginning of my problems. The applique made them shrink so when I put the two blocks together I am short by say 2/8 inch. Have you...

I searched the web but could not find this book. in the cover it has a quilt with aplique art nouveau flowers. somebody sent me pics and instructions for one of them but I cannot find them....

Hello! Years ago, I started what I expected to be a large wall hanging. This UFO colour study is 45 inches wide by 56 inches long. I would like to turn it into a decent sized lap quilt for my eldest child's dorm room. I know that I would like it to have two borders. I like the look of a thin...

Our guild presented this year's challenge quilts last night. "Everything Old is New Again". We had some clever and lovely quilts made from vintage clothing as memory quilts honoring deceased family members, beautiful handkerchiefs, dresser scarves, Japanese rags bag kimonos, old draperies, and...

Hello folks, Someone tried to buy a mobile phone in Finland with my credit card details on Wednesday. I wasn't mobile shopping in Finland as it happens. My bank phoned me to tell me of the attempted purchase, which was declined. My bank also stopped the card and will be issuing me a new...

So, as I was waiting for the advil to kick in after having a root canal done on Monday, I decided to jot down notes/statistics from the directory information. Not sure what it will ever be used for, but it amused me and kept my mind off the pain. Here is what I came up with: Top 4 #1 favorite...

Do you use starch on your quilting fabrics? Why or why not? If you do, how do you do it (spray, liquid, aerosol)? Certain brands? Any recommendations? What does it affect? Tricia (sick of sloppy cuts and considering using starch in the hopes of crispness)

Hey Teresa, Thanks for answering me in the quilting group. I am thinking of offering myself up to do art wall hangings or throws for both of my sons for Christmas. Obviously not enough time left for me to finish them as I hawve a stack here to do before that day but thought they might like to...
