I wish I could take time off!!!! We sign up for vacation by seniority (I am #1, having been here just over 30 years). I always take Christmas time...

Thank Denis - I learn MORE stuff on here daily!!! But, I thought Retayne was for making the wrinkles go away on faces :D Synthropol! the...

Good morning everyone. Beautiful day here. Although they say there is a tiny chance of some rain. We went and got a load of hay yesterday afternoon...

No shaking blog up here in Canada- only shaking we had was the earthquake last week about 20 miles away 5.2 on the scale. No one was hurt!

S A S S Y !!

Mine came in nearly mint condition, only had to do some minor clean up on it .. and got it for $100.00 off craigslist. $250.00 seems a bit high...

Great blog! No shaking either.

I add sashing between blocks either in rows or columns, then add longer strips to connect the rows or columns together. You need to apply these...

No shaking, just drooling over those blueberry muffins!!! I looked on a Windows 7 PC with IE 10 and also Google Chrome. Flowery script kept my eyes...

140 miles and $250 sounds a little high to me too. There are always treadle machines on my craigs list. Check your local CL and see if there isn't...

I haven't been to Aurthur since about 1985! It's on the way to Joanne's in Champaign. I'm toying with the idea of making a trip today, might have...

Watched Fons and Porter this morning and they had this ruler! Cool :icon_bigsmile:

great idea.

Ad says $250, sounds a bit high to me, but the owner said the previous owner did quite a bit of work on it. I need more information on it before I...

It's called Synthropol. Use only after dye has bled. Not to be confused with Retayne which you use when pre-washing. It helps lock in or retain...

Very nice. Love the skirt. DH would probably drop over from a heart attack if he saw me in a skirt or dress. If I am not in my jammies I am in...

Six treadle machines???? Oh my gosh! I'm thankful to just have one!

Good morning! It's cool in KY but should be a nice day later. No holiday plans...just R&R with some sewing thrown in the mix.

I loved that idea also Iris!! Haven't found any, but don't go out much right now. Must get some they look soft enough where they could hold any...

Almost looked like brass knuckles when I first looked. Had to take a second look with my glasses on. LOL What a great idea.

See, Jean - everyone thinks you should just go for it. I'm interested in what they are asking. I have a total of six treadles and need to start...

Welcome Katie, and the Best of luck at your wonderful new job!!! Not that we are all addicted to fabric quilting the Missouri store or anything...

Hi Katie and welcome. Glad you joined the forum.

Hi Katie and congratulations on joining the M*QC team!

Hello and welcome from Canada. The red sashing would really bring out the colors also agree with a thin black border as well. Would make it a big WOW...

OHH after you have the pattern I can HIGHLY recommend going to SEE how the sizing is, and issues or great things other sewers have made and written...

Welcome from Kentucky! These are great blocks and will be set off nicely with red sashing and a touch of black!

Thank you all!!! Gosh I didn't know many sew clothing or used to! It was a fun break from Quilting, harder in a different way but fun. Good luck...

Katie, welcome and maybe we will talk soon! ( lol I order quite a lot ) :D
