I love Irish Chains, and yours is beautiful.

Love all of them. What a great use of a jelly roll. Can't pick a favorite cuz I just love all of them.

Musta missed something. I know that I was like a raving lunatic a while back, but it was the steroids doing it to me. Getting back to my old self slowly but surely.

I have no advice because I have never made a quilt without batting. Hope you get it figured out though.

Ornery is an understatement. LOL

I truly love my new Brother NX450Q. It pieces and quilts like a dream. It has everything I was looking for. and had great reviews. Good luck with you search.

Worked fine for me. I love your blog BTW. I don't follow nearly as many as I should.

My DD took this pic of the kids the other day. These are the reason, I live and breathe. My little man Bubby (Gabe) is the reason I quilt for the PICU.

Absolutely stunning. I would love to feel the texture. Did you do trapunto to make the kitty and letters stand out. I can see it was a labor of love. How happy they will be when the see this. Lucky...

Love deco mesh. It is so easy to work with and comes in so many colors it is easy to make a wreath for any occasion.

Holy cow. I thought I bought a lot when our little WM was closing, to move to the new super center, and had a bunch of fabric at $1 a yd. I got some great stuff, but only bought 57 yds. Or it might...

Have a great time Wendy. We never go anywhere on the holiday weekends. Staying at home is my plan.

Cyndi, you just HAVE to finish it. It is so pretty. Just do a block a week or something and before you know it, voila it will be done. I love samplers, just not sure I would have the patience to do...

I have ordered from them with no problem. The problem isn't with them it is with the usps. I had a similar thing happen with an order from M*. The tracking stopped in KC and fro there it just...

I thought I would take some of these left over from prairie points solid squares and just add white to one side and see what happened. I staggered each row, and thought it looked fine. Pieced it,...

Good luck Barb. How exciting it is to get a new toy. I know you will have a ball playing with it. Congrats.

I am sure with all the fabric I have and has been donated for PICU quilts I should be able to find something. Just have to look.

I have never had a problem with the thread bleeding. You may try color catchers, but not sure those would work if it has already been dried. Of course he loves it. You made it just for him.

Of course you do :) I have no doubt you will have more than that one when we meet up in Oct. That may be a good thing. I may not be able to spend as much cuz I won't have the room :D

The sad thing is no one pays in cash any more. Payrolls are even paid on a card. The banks and CC companies need to figure out better safe guards. Or we just need to go back to paying by cash, and...

Absolutely adorable. How can they not be the greatest cosmo's ever planted, with Superman doing the planting.

Do not like to hear you are in so much pain. Will have you in my prayers. Hope the doc can give you some answers.

Have to agree with Karen on this one. If you are responsible for someones else's child you don't drink while they are in your care. I too have no use for drunks or alcoholics. I see nothing wrong...

Me likes :) Was thinking about doing something similar with some of my ton of scraps.

I like this a lot. Not my style, but very pretty.
