Joy, keeping her in my prayers.

Good idea of doing the school craft fair in April. That could generate some T shirt quilt business for graduating seniors. If you could have one for display or at least photos of some you've done,...

Thanks all. Suzanne, you are so right. Great to have it off my list.

Finished this and delivered to a happy client today. 161686
He picked the name for the quilt, which I had embroidered on the label. This reflected his tour of Hard Rock Cafes around the world...

It is fabulous! I can dream of doing this one day.

Good morning. Stayed home from mass this morning , since sore throat and coughing don't need to be passed on to others. Finished the Hard Rock t shirt quilt yesterday, but when I washed it, some of...

Suzanne, I am the same way about wanting to finish my quilts from start to finish, (excluding creating the fabrics and designs)

Great idea, and Christmas fabric is on sale already

I think if you choose an all over edge to edge, it should be simple, so as not to compete with the piecing. There's a lot going on with this quilt, and you don't want to take away from it. I agree...

Good morning everyone. I got a new laptop and it has taken me several days to figure out my password for this site, which I had never written down. Claire, thanks for mentioning the dollar store. I...

Welcome from TX. I have no objections to emojis, they're just not for me.

I might be too late, but the TX Quilt Museum in LaGrange is only 139 miles from Ft. Hood. You can check the website online to see if you'received interested in the current exhibits.

Nice job on them!

I see lots more fun in the future. Congrats!

Are you stopping your stitch 1/4 inch before reaching each end? I'm no expert but just guessing that maybe this could be a cause of what you describe.

My guess is that they found something that they liked better, for whatever reason. It should not be construed as anything wrong with your house. Take a deep breath, and realize you just have a bit...

Not familiar with Kaye Wood or many other famous legends in the quilting world. Quilting today is so diverse that there is not enough time to follow everyone. For example, I am a huge fan of Linda V...

I just ordered me some foundation papers for the pineapple block from fatquartershop.Com . I've been wanting to try paper piecing this block from scraps.

It is now noon, where did the morning go? My 6 yr old laptop has been having issues lately with the battery, so I decided I should get a new one before this one craters. Well, after getting the baby...

Very good indeed! I love your creativeness.

Happy Thanksgiving to all Americans, and happy day to all others. While I had anticipated being alone this morning quilting, plans changed and now I am cooking for DD and family. DD and SIL have to...

Good afternoon everyone. Jeannette, congrats on the dress. I remember well shopping with my daughter for the dress. Of course, the first dress she tried on was over her budget and the one she ended...

Hang in there. It does get easier with each one you do. I kept my very first quilt, so I can always look back at the progress i've made since I started my first quilt.

I've only made one. My experience is all pieces flannel was softer than batting in the middle. Definitely want the larger seams. Also, don't leave all of the snipping to the end. Your hands will...

Nice. Your quilting is very good.
