hand piecing and quilting by
Mary
Am I one of a dying breed? I enjoy piecing and quilting completely by
hand. I have 3 sewing machines, all working very nicely, but really
prefer to do everything by hand even though it takes a lot longer. My
only "modern" thing is that I use a rotary cutter and mat. Otherwise
I could probably...

Collecting for by
Butterflywings
Every so often one of us asks:
What are YOU collecting for?
It doesn't have to be a WIP (Work in Progress) ((Christmas 6" finished
squares TATW))
have a due date ((Butterfly Attic Window))
could even be a someday ((B/W))
or even have to be fabric ((Thimbles, cup/saucer, butterflies))

Happy Dance :) by
Sandy
Carol Doak posted a row by row quilt over the course of the past few
months. I didn't want to make mine very large, so I "downsized" each row
by half. Yesterday I sewed the label on as the finishing touch. :) It's

OT; Extreme makeover by

When I first started posting to this group I used the Internet name
that I use on another group that I post to. You may
have wondered about the name Fixedgearhead. That pertains to bicycling
and a small subset within that general description which is Fixed Gear
Bicycling. The easiest way to...

Most used machine by
maryd
What sewing machine do you use the most?
I use a '79 or so model White ESP that was given to me. My cheap Wal-Mart
Brother was a waste of money. I also have a Singer Merritt that sits in
it's cabinet in the hall and hasn't been used for about 3 years.

OT Anyone here with gallbladder problems? by
QuiltsWithCatFur
Last week, I spent one day in urgent care, the next day in the ER with bad
abdom pain, fever, nausea. The ER doc must've graduated dead last in his
class because after xrays, a mix-up about my urine sample and test results,
a catscan, and bloodwork, he diagnosed me with a urinary tract...

I hope this isn't OT? and it certainly isn't an advertisement/spam g
So many of you have been patient (I haven't been patient!) waiting for
my book to be produced. This afternoon I received the first consignment
of books from the printers. I could hardly believe they were real!

OT Sweet Tea by
NightMist
After some years of work I have finally got DH off of those instant
iced tea mixes, and drinking iced tea that is actual iced tea. The
only thing is he prefers sweet tea. He makes it by infusing the tea
into a sugar solution to make a concentrate, but I am wondering if
anybody has a recipe that...

[OT] Thumb or Pacifier? by
melinda
Is it easier to train a kid out a pacifier or sucking on the thumb?
The reason I ask is that DS has just taught himself to suck on his thumb!
I'd prefer him not to suck on his thumb, so how do I get him to stop?
TIA

Stirring the pot with another discussion-- VBG by

What is a "professional" Quilter?? or maybe that should be "Who".
This discussion has come up in a couple of conversations I have had
lately and would like to see what others have to say.
Our local guild quilt show has seen a serious decline in entries over
the last several years because of...

next years goals by

yes, I am already thinking about this. By the end of the year, 2004, I
plan on having finished a table runner and placemats (and probably
napkins) for MOther, and the queen-sized quilt for MOm and Dad. Because
of the expensive repairs that we needed done in november and december,

OT Summer Reads by
Diana Curtis
Its not quite summer here in the upper Midwest, but its coming, and there
will be days when there is only enough energy left in the heat of the
afternoon to sip something cool while sitting in the shade, and reading a
good book, or handpiecing something simple.
Now would be a good time to ask for...

How does everyone store their stash? by
joysjane
Do you sort by color? By sizes (FQ/yards/squares)? By themes?
Currently I am sorting by all - mostly colors. I have a few theme fabrics
that go together set aside. I have different baskets for different size
scraps or squares. And then anything that is 1 yard or more is all put
together. ...

This morning, at 8 a.m., I left the house and went to a garage sale that
advertised quilting fabric, but they wouldn't open until 9. I dropped
some books off at the library and went back and sat until they opened
about 5 minutes early. I was the first one in the garage and told her
I'd take all...

Well, we just got a dog a few days ago, but were pet-less for 3 years before
that. I admit I am an animal lover through and through, but if you are not,
that's ok with me. I don't hold that against anyone! It does make for a more
simple life - no extra mouths to feed, or take walkies. You can leave...
