My Jessamy's 4th of July Surprise quilt top by
elspeth
The digital colors are not accurate -- the blue is darker and the red is
brighter. I made lots of mistakes but learned a lot in the process.

Yay! I finished quilting and binding the baby quilt last night and it's

Frustration.... by
Sandy Foster
I've been babysitting a lot for the past few days -- all the more so
since DH is out of town and can't give me a break all day long. It's
been a long time since I've had toddlers around for any length of time,
and it wears me out! G But that's not what has me frustrated -- it's
just probably...

OT why I'm a pack rat by
KJ
But not a good enough one! DD just called to ask me to look for old clothes
for "Totally 80's Day" at band camp. (She's the director.)
A friend and I had a business back in the 80's in Scottsdale. We decorated
clothes (think long T-shirts with rhinestones and appliques and "clips" to
pull the...

OT The Joy of the QI by
Polly Esther
This week, DH and I have been wallpapering a tiny bathroom. There is not
one window, door, light switch or corner in that room that is true, level
and square. Before we were half begun, both of us made the movie 'Grumpy
Old Men' look like a picnic.
In the middle of wallpaper glue dripping...

My Quilt Collection Groweth by
Terri
I wish I'd done this as I went instead of having to go back
and collect everything and put it in one place now but so it goes.
I'm testing driving a slide show with some of my quilts of
the past 3 years. I've got a few more to dig up but for now,
this'll do, I think.
Please let me know if you have...

Men's shirts quilt by
Lobo
Could someone direct me to a site with a photo of a quilt made from men's
shirts? I saw it somewhere a long time ago ... was sewn so the collar and
sleeves were still on the shirt/s. When I Google "men's shirt quilt" or
similar phrasing, I get thousands of hits, but they all seem to be for...

Stupid ironing question by
desert quilter
This sounds stupid, but the fabric I have chosen for a swap seems to be
ironing resistent! When I iron it, it looks flat and nice, but by the
time the fabric cools down, it's back to its previous wrinkly state. I
tried sprinkling it with water. Same result. It's a rather heavy 100%
cotton...
