What have I done? I won the bid on a Singer 15-91. I'm too surprised to know what to do except come running to you. I know the adoption approach is different from bringing home a new SM. Are there absolutely "do-nots" such as dunking her in a bucket of kerosene? (Just kidding). Are there any...

Jo, how is Sasha doing? I have been thinking about your kitty daily. I hope the medicine is working well. -- Boca Jan Southern Florida - land of the hurricanes http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/poo_de_doo/my_photos

I can't believe it. After all the mess from the hurricane and all the problems associated with trying to get my life back, I was able to sit down for an hour a day to finally finish my Garden Twist quilt top. I did it in two shades of blue and yellow. It's just a twin size quilt but it will look...

Here are the winners from our July 15-16 Show: http://community.webshots.com/album/552409610AzheRn Enjoy. This year, we opened the show up to non-members. Members were 3/4 of the entries; and received 8 of the total 16 ribbons. We got some great submissions from artists around Southwest...

I am looking for "Easy Paper-Pieced Miniatures" by our own Carol Doak. I know this is an out-of-print book, plus this is a long-shot asking to trade for it. I have fabric, other books, a spoiled husky mix dog, and an even more spoiled husband. Any or all are up for negotiation in this deal....

I might have missed this before, but I thought that we were to get an email response when we filled out the directory form. I didn't get one. Did I miss a message about this? Martha joysjane

What is the (cable network name) for the Porter and Fons quilting show that is on tv; And any other quilting shows that are on Cable. I was just made aware of them. Thanks. John

Ladies, I have been out of the loop for so long that many of you probably don't remember me. Anyhow, I felt now that life has calmed down a bit I should get back on here and apologise. We put our house on the market last May and ever since then things have been chaotic. We had a long summer of...

I posted the following but haven't had any replies, so perhaps it didn't show up on anyone else's computer. I've been looking at the silk ties I've been collecting for ages, and have a sort of inspiration. I think I would need to do this on a leave-in foundation to stabilise it. and do it...

A year later, I'm still unpacking boxes from our move. :) I got down to my screen printing (silk screening) supplies, and have realized that while it's a lot of fun, I'm just not going to make the time I need to really get good at this. So I'd like to give my supplies to a good home where they...

Hi, I've finally plugged in my new SM, and so far everything seems good. I was wondering, though, if any of you Janome owners know of a book about these machines. It comes with a very basic instruction book on how to run the machine, but I'm more interested in a sort of "how to" book with...

Hi there.. I live in monmouth county.. and my freind's baby is due any day now and i want to make 2 labels for the 2 quilts i just finished but want them to be nice, not the iron on junky looking labels i've done so far.. was wondering if anyone was in the area, if i could make a couple...

I want to make a lap-size quilt for an elderly friend whose DH died a year ago. Blue and red among the colors. Preferably scrappy. Pieced. Nothing too elaborate. I am stuck! Even my trusty It's Okay if you Sit on My Quilt book isn't helping. Don't know if the rest of my life is interfering with...

I have a 1/4 foot with a little metal edge guide, as I'm sure most of you do. Has anyone ever heard of a similar foot with an 1/8 inch guide on it? I have projects other than quilting that I could use it for. Linda, in Lancaster PA

I joined a couple weeks ago and had filled some wants.... some fabric scraps for quilts, zippered storage bags... little stuff. Today I responded to a post for a free flannel flat sheet. I got it. She said she also had some quilt scraps so I got those too. Got some great pieces including...

Okay, it's bad enough we're having to spend too much money tearing the house apart and putting it back together without the allergens one of our sons is severely allergic to (and which I'm moderately allergic to), now we get the results of his food allergy testing and he's allergic to practically...

Came across this today. Doesn't look like any new info though : ( http://vvdailypress.com/2005/111884049479519.html

It is getting close to when the final block is released and construction time begins. Before I pass the torch on to next year's BOM keeper, I wanted to add a little extra special surprise to inspire us all to finish our BOM quilts (or at LEAST the tops). When I have the pics gallery up and running...

lets see if i got this right or not. not that it matters much. either way, i'm posting to test after being offline with stupid puter that would not boot up for a week. i gave it three or four days by itself, after the initial rebooting trys. then try'd it again for a whole day. then dh asked me...
