Candi, I know what you are going through, I had to buy a new lappie on Saturday, as my old one died completely. I am having to contend with windows 7 instead of XP, I went up from a note book to a wide screen lappie, and fortunately, because I had an external back up system, my SIL was able to do a restore onto the new lappie for me. I have lost about three weeks of info (note to self, back up more often), but at least I still have upwards of 2 - 2,500 pics that I thought might have been lost. Phew!

SO THIS IS WHERE YOU ALL HAVE BEEN HIDING YOUR BEAUTIFUL WORK!!!!!!!!!
I wondered why I never saw anything related to the AOTH topics,when I check the board...guess I never look at the Block of the Month section!
Glad I found you all, now for some serious eye candy
Well done everyone!!

Hi. Izy! Yup, we all hang out over here at Lesley's kitchen table. Pour yourself a cuppa & pull up a chair. Sometimes, Lesley even bakes for us, but mostly we just chat up a storm! Welcome.
are you going to join in on the fun of making an AOTH quilt with us?

Haha..I have just literally made a cuppa, sat down with feet up and decided to see what was happening while I have been busy cleaning the house!
Oh I wish I could commit, as I love applique but with my personal situation being as it is (DH terminal..) I have to fit in my sewing as and when I can! BUT I can check in on you all if that's ok and I keep in touch with my friend Elle who updates me regularly with her progress. I justn't didn't realise it was listed under BOM duh!!! Hormones I blame LOL! :lol: :D :roll:

I am so sorry about your DH. You are more than welcome to stop by whenever you get a chance. Yes, we are having fun. These blocks are turning out to be so pretty. Even though we are all using the same patterns, the blocks have taken on a life of their own. We all can't wait to see the next one somebody is working on.

Well I can't promise to post losts of comments on each different block but rest assured I am lurking and enjoying watching you all make such beautiful heirlooms and thinking...'One day, I might do something as stunning as these! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Glad you were able to get most of your data.

Hello again to all. I have been very busy and haven't been able to do any blocks for 3 months so I am glad that I worked ahead when I was away with hubby the last time. I am going with hubby next week so I will be able to get back to AOTH. You girls have really been busy. Everyone's blocks and centers looks great. I need to catch up on all the chat here
So happy to be getting back to quilting I have missed it so much but with so many GC I never have time for anything. I am glad they are all back to school. With the flood here it has been hard to even get anywhere.

HELP! I've finished hand-appliquing several blocks and now need to go back and do the embroidery. I want to use a gold metallic thread and continue hand-sewing. However, I've tried 4 different metallic threads and every one of them frays. Is there a "secret" to hand-sewing with metallic thread? What brands do you recommend??
Thanks!
Thanks!
