Are you a member of a quilt guild? If so, ask if any of the quilters would like to do a trade. Maybe trade a quilt top for quilting or hand sewing binding down on their quilts.

You can expect...

Are you making the pattern from Jordan Fabrics?

I think it would be really great to give each some napkins.

One year I made mini loaves of sweet bread. Spent one afternoon baking and found clear plastic wrap in red and in green. Gave 3 loaves in different flavors to each recipient. They really loved it....

You already have a lot of good suggestions to choose from. Just wanted to pop in and say "what a beautiful quilt!"

Sometimes when I'm replying to an email, the page jumps around! I can't see what I'm typing! And it's not from the little pad on my keyboard being too sensitive - DH disabled it for me.

Here's what I use:

When I quilt on my longarm and the thread breaks in a very visible place, I unquilt to get long...

I have made only one so far. I used flannel in the middle also. I bought 3 Sahara Minky layer cakes from M*. There's only 20 squares to a minky layer cake and these were actually 11" squares. So...

A Queen mattress is 60" X 80" so with the 93" X 93" you would get about the same amount hanging on the sides and the bottom of the mattress. Wish I had measured my mattress before making a quilt...

Thanks! I have posted this link in my user notes!

One time I had skipped stitches and I was told to use a larger needle and that solved the problem.

Much safer and I found that it's easier to cut with the smallest blade that you have.

Are you planning on using the layer cake for background also? If not, you will need yardage instead of the second layer cake.

And if 2 layer cakes are not quite enough, then borders are your...

Find out what her favorite color is and use a very light pastel in that color.

There are so many colors in that fabric that you have a lot to choose from.

Thanks! That's pretty neat! Never saw it before.

When I was a kid, a long time ago, my aunt and grandmother taught me how to make scrappy quilts. We took old sheets and cut them into squares. Then we cut up old clothes and started just laying...
