You'll love the OTT light. I can't sew without mine.

Wow, quite a haul! I really like those blue jelly rolls. Have been putting off going to Joann's for 1 color of blue fabric because it is so hard to get out of there without purchasing so much. I have been really BADDDDD lately so trying to be good.

Okay, you win today. I'm jealous of those thread packages. I just love buying thread, almost as much as buying fabric! :-)

The jellyrolls are really nice but what is a QFK?

Quilts for Kids, an organization that gifts the quilts to cancer patients and seriously ill kids. Check out quiltsforkids.org. You can request a kit, everything is included except the batting. I have made 5 so far and am planning on making more as soon as I have finished another WIP.

Yeah, those boxes were 50% off, but I should have gotten 2 more. The only problem is I am running out of space to put them. Guess I had better get busy embroidering so I can use some of it up :roll: :lol: :roll: :P

Oh! of course. I have read about these and I decided they wouldn't like my quilts because they asked that it be well quilted and I don't really do anything but straight stitch quilting or stitch-in-the-ditch. Can't recall but it had something to do with some cleaning product.

They take stitch-in-ditch and straight line quilting. They are sponsored by Downy. I usually just do a diagonal line quilting or something plain and fast. They have accepted all mine with no problem.

Well, that's great to hear. Maybe I'll give it a try after all. Thanks!
