Some of my back yard, then shrubs around my koi pond and the big pine tree out my kitchen windows with all it's branches so full of snow laying on the grass. It's a whole 15 degrees.[ATTACH=CONFIG]439655[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]439656[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]439657[/ATTACH]

I think i gave a fair amount of information on my list but just in case, here goes: I do not need a fabric calculator because I will probably never make a full-size quilt. 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!

Girls, help me out here.

catches us....SWOOOOOOOSH down the hole she has gone.

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. :thumbup:

We may need to pull you into the hole, for getting so far behind! Tsk, tsk! Bwahahahahahahhaaaa!!! :D

I haven`t posted a lot either only because I like surprises....I`m sure a quilter knows what a quilter likes but here goes for a few ideas...no color catchers where I come from so that would be appreciated...love modern fabric....all colors....always need a new ruler ....love candies...have no pets nor want any...hmmm what else can I add...just surprise me...lol

No, we can't do that. Some people aren't as "bold" as others. We just need to coax the shy ones out of the corner.

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. :p

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). :rolleyes:

Leaving now. Maybe. :D

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.

NESSIE
forgot to tell you I couldn't sleep last night
so went on a raid in the middle of the night.
there is a huge variety I have just stocked into the hole.
have you seen it.


JuanitaBean 10-04-2013 11:08 AM

jaba that look sooooo cold. Have fun sewing. It's 65* here in CA loving it.

ArizonaKAT 10-04-2013 11:14 AM

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!
