House pattern found by
Polly Esther
Some weeks ago I was bragging about my "Who's Home?" quilt. It's a very
simple house pattern with all kinds of fun things looking out the windows
where I included Mt. Rushmore and a baby proudly pointing out his belly
button. Finally, the pattern surfaced here. It is by Freddy Moran and she
calls...

Shameless Begging - Puhleeeeze! by
TwinMom
Ok, I'm coming out of hiding just for the moment. My 4 yo DD (my younger
sister's daughter for those of you who remember) is in a co-op preschool and
I've been asked to do a "quilting project" like I did for twin DSs a few
years back. DSs' project was Wonder Under fabric shapes onto mini...

Quilters thread by
Judy W
I want to thank all of you again for all of the help you have given me. But,
I'm sorry to say I have another question.
The quilt I'm making says to use regular thread throughout the whole project
of my quilt. I have read that you should use Quilting thread for the Machine
quilting part. Is this...

in the ditch quilting??? by
Judy W
I'm close to starting my Machine quilting. The Magazine for my pattern isn't
very clear and for a beginner like me is not good. I understand what In the
Ditch is, but what I don't know is, am I supposed to go around the whole
square? I just did the 51/2" square quilt. Do I go around each square...

what prize by
Judy W
You can't possibly mean me. I only just came to this news group. I have
never heard of a news group that did nice things for others. It's been years
since I have posted on any news group because I always came back with my
feeling getting hurt. Most are so nasty. This is such a wonderful place....

GGRRRR by
KJ
I'm so mad! I just tried to open a package of 100%cotton Mountain Mist
batting. It is now pretty much shredded all over my basement floor! When I
tried to unfold it, it was stuck together to the point that it came apart in
strips. What a mess!

French fabric by
The Laws
I did buy some fabric at Le Louvray in Paris, in packets like fat
quarters, and the material is courser by feel, so if you want to mix some
with American prints or solids you would have to hunt for some a little
courser to mix well, but there are a lot in the US with a courser feel and
look, and...

Helen in MN
Well, I did it for the first time- finished a shop hop that is. (oh you with
dirty minds!!!!)
In the Twin Cities there is an established "Shop Till You Drop" of
established quit stores- but there are more in the area. This was spread
over quite a large area (in my mind, in this part of the...

Happy dance, but tired/sore back... by
hfw
Just made my first quillow, for DGD's 5th birthday. First time I ever
"birthed" a quilt--yeow! I think that's harder than sandwiching and
binding--and (drumroll, please!) first quilting I ever did on our new
PCQuilter!!!
The sore back is because I've got to get that table up higher--especially...

Starting Christmas projects... by
MerryStahel
I took this free pattern:
http://www.sewing.org/enthusiast/envelope_sachet.pdf
I made the squares 3 1/2 inches instead...put it together exactly as the
instructions say. (I used velcro closures, though, sewn on by hand).
WalMart carries Ampad envelopes 4 3/8 X 5 3/4. A box of 60 is a few...

Cheeze It's by
Boca Jan
I went to the store for Cheeze It's and forgot what flavor is being looked
for and who is looking for them. ~sigh~ That's what I get for forgetting to
mark it not read. Will the person requesting these please let me know the
right flavor?

Flower holder by
Patti
For those of you who like to make small, different things for Christmas
and other presents:
Earlier this week I popped into a florist's. On their wall, I saw a
beautiful purple, silk-looking 'thing'. I asked what it was for.
Carrying gift flowers, she said. What a fabulous idea I thought!
