I love fat quarters, charm squares, and 2 1/2" strips. I do not have an eye for colour, so the more coordinated the better. I like to do applique, so fusible adhesive would be great, and my presser sheet is a mess, so that is something I need as well. I don't have any iron cleaner, I can always use bobbins for my Brother SQ 9050, and I need a new pin cushion. I like mints - peppermint, spearmint, wintergreen, and cinnamon. I do not collect buttons, but a few for wallhangings would be great. I would love a twister template, or any other template for small (wallhanging-size) quilts. I could really use some quilt labels, as well as a pen to write on them. Whew, that is enough - you would never know from the mess in my quilt room that I need anything more at all!

    Welcome to the hole, Bilben! You'll like it here. We've got hot cocoa w/coconut rum, coffee, chocolate, pastries, and all the raided fabric, you can carry! Ooops! I mean FOUND fabric. We only pick up ABANDONED and NEGLECTED fabric, we FIND.

    Ladies, I promise you the hole is a much better place to be than the corner.

    OK, how about this. If you haven't posted here yet but are lurking. Drop a post and just say "Hi". We'll do the rest.

    I've got a box started, for my SS. Am waiting on the FQs, which I ordered from Thousands of Bolts. That's my new favorite place, to fabric shop! Still need to make a few things but won't commit to them, until I see how they turn out.

    Gotta go start a new quilt top, so am trying to tear myself away from this thread, long enough to choose the fabric from stash. Last weekend, I started a Rail Fence, in the 'woven' pattern. That was fun and it went fairly quickly, so may use that pattern again. Still trying to get an assortment done, for family Christmas gifts. Needless to say, these are just twin-sized sofa quilts! Gotta remember to set aside binding fabric, as well as backing (if I have something that'll work).

    Leaving now. Maybe.

    I officially request that you speak up so we all know you're here. Don't be shy.
    I tried joining in last year but no body wanted to play with me so I went back into hiding. Still enjoyed reading and putting my box together.

    OH NO!, Now that we found you, we'll play. Did it snow in NY last night? Give us desert dwellers some idea of what your state is like in October. Post your likes. You may not have given your SS enough info.

    Do you like choclate? What are your favorite colors? What do you like to quilt the most? Join in the "I prefer a ________ truck conversation.

    Take a walk to the hole and peek over. . . .

    someone push her before she figures out what we're doing!
