photo, Golden retriever wall hanging by Marijke
Some people told me back in January that they wanted to see the wallhanging I made after Rox died so I finally have a photo of it in my photo album. It's the first in Rox's album at http://photos.yahoo.com/sesesi I think it turned out very well. Marijke

my sewing machine is sick by Marijke
Sigh. Iris is about 11 months old and due for her check up anyway, but she's sounding like a machine gun now, not a sewing machine. How will I manage without her around for a few days? Please assure me that it will only be a few days? I can't bring her in to the sewing machine hospital until...

ot, new QI soon ;-) by Marijke
Back in January, many of you were so very kind when we lost our beloved golden retriever, Rox, to cancer. He was nine years old and we were so very lucky to have had him in our lives for the past 7 years. It was a very tough loss as those of you who have had pets well know. This loss was made...

quilting border hint by Marijke
Most of you probably already have known this for a while but for some of the newer quilters, I thought this might be helpful. I just showed someone how to quilt a border and she was pretty surprised at how to get close to the edges. First, for my 18" hoop, I have a cap that I had made that fits...

happy, HAPPY dance... by Marijke
My double wedding ring quilt, for hubby's niece... is done! Paper pieced arcs (McCall's pattern) and the rest is hand pieced and it's all hand quilted. It's about queen size with the border on it. Photos at http://photos.yahoo.com/sesesi in the DWR section. :-) Marijke,

today's project (photo too) by Marijke
Woohoo... started and finished a wallhanging. Our friends who are taking dd to Europe this summer have a schnauzer so I made them a wallhanging to thank them. It's in the wallhanging section of my photoalbum at http://photos.yahoo.com/sesesi, if you'd like to see it. Marijke in windy Montreal

fabric with greyhounds? by Marijke
Has anyone here seen fabric with greyhounds on it? I'm making greyhound coats which are selling well, but I'd like to be able to offer quilts with greyhounds as well. Any tips would be appreciated! Thanks, Marijke in Montreal

I love, love, love my new hoop by Marijke
For years, I've been alternating between my Wonderhoop (18"), my small qsnap frame and my big qsnap floor frame. Last month, I spluged and bought the Grace Hoop 2 Polymer Frame, 24" and I LOOOOOOVE it. It's so easy to use. You just stick your quilt on and then quilt as far as you can reach....

attempting something new by Marijke
I'm doing something I've never tried before. I'm making an art quilt using a fusible web to hold everything down. So far, everything is working like a charm and I'm very pleased with how it's going - I have about a quarter of it done so far. Now, my questions. One, will this wallhanging be...

fabric from Egypt by Marijke
sound yummy? ;-) A friend of mine is going to Egypt in January and has asked if she buys fabric there, if I will make her a quilt. She'll pay me for my time, plus - I get to keep leftovers. So, I'm figuring a baby quilt would do.... ;-) Seriously now.... she asked if I only work with 100%...

OT another QI goes to Rainbow Bridge by Marijke
A beautiful golden retriever came to live with us 7 years ago. He was 2 yrs old at the time when his family decided they didn't want him any more. We had 7 wonderful years with him. He never did anything to make us upset - annoyed from time to time, but never upset. He was such a good dog. So...

just received a wonderful gift! by Marijke
I have just been the VERY lucky recipient of 20 fqs of fabric, the Oriental Collection from Keepsake. To say I'm grinning would be an understatement. While this is something I'd never buy, it doesn't mean I don't love it! I do love them and I gasped when I opened the package. The colours are...

speaking of commission quilts by Marijke
I posted a while back that someone I knew was going to Egypt and would be bringing back fabrics for me to make her a quilt. We've decided on a pattern and she will be providing all the materials meaning fabric, thread and batting. There will be few machine embroidered designs and she has...

happy dance! by Marijke
My DWR is pieced. I finished the last piece this morning. My fingers are raw (hand piecing) but I'm happy! I'm just going to put a 4 inch white border all around as it is not quite large enough for my tastes. I don't know if my husband's niece will have a double or queen sized bed, but the extra...

oh no...sharpey smudge on thread to fabric by Marijke
Please tell me there is a way to take off black sharpey smudge off white fabric? I drew a design with sharpey and let it dry thoroughly, but the white thread still caught some ink, and is now on the white fabric (in the pin holes, specifically). Can I get this out? Marijke

DWR solution by Marijke
If you read about my saga and the smudged sharpey... I took the block out and am in the midst of sewing in a new one. I figured that it would always bother me and I'd be bound to point it out to the bride so... this way, it's outta there for sure. Thanks for all the help, Marijke

hello again by Marijke
wow, it seems ages since I've popped in here. I miss my quilting fix. I've been busy but I wanted to report to those who were following the progress of my double wedding ring quilt. I made it for my husband's niece who got married at the beginning of the month. She absolutely loved it. And, she...
