Hi all,

When I was at retreat this past weekend I thought I'd try my new Clover Mini-iron, the kind with a tip that can be changed. It's a disaster. Or the operator (me) is the disaster. I was using it with starch. It got all black and gummy and I have black marks on my fabric and can't get the little tip clean. I sent an email to Clover but haven't heard back yet.

Has anyone else experienced this? This is my first (maybe last) experience using the mini-iron. I thought it would…

 It is such along time since i was on this site, life has been a bit wild ! upsetting! not sure how to say. I am now on oxygen 24 hours aday so dont get to do much or have trouble to breath. I very seldom leave the house.Have an oxygen cylindar that goes in a trolly to go out but its so hard to push i seem to just go to Dr and get my hair cut. Dont have transport so have to depend on others and i hate asking.  A daughter goes for my shopping very 2 weeks and we get one meal aweek that we buy…

  Recently ordered a "Tavern Blues Quilt Kit" online along with several of their fabrics and I'm having some problems.  Read for yourself and be warned before buying from these people.  I had no idea and did not see this one coming.  Any advice is welcome.  I've never disputed a purchase on my credit card before but this may be the first.  The call and email were made early today and still no…

Have you ever had a quilt that when you finished it you just was not happy with it ? Well I was looking through some quilt that I had quilted back in the (way back) past and found one that I must have just gave up on and was not happy with it so I put  a binning on and called it finished . I think that I have come a long way in my quilting that I'm going to go back and redo this quilt. I love the fabric and how it was pieced so I want it to be quilted better.…

You asked for this so here it is, My Simple Sewing Space!

Welcome to my work space! Not being a person, who procures a great many things, I prefer a short-and-sweet way of living. My motto is: if I don’t use it regularly it gets thrown out. What you are about…

It was 82 degrees on Saturday & today it is snowing!  I'm beginning to think that some how or another I just slept through spring, summer & fall and am back dealing with winter.  My poor daffodils are looking kind of bewildered and my huge tree doesn't know what to do.  So if anyone knows where spring is, would you please tell it that we would like it to come back to visit in Mid-Missouri? 

It's Like the Skies of Roswell! Except this is a different kind of UFO.

My Yei Figures Bag is finished except for adding the beads to the necklaces and bolos.

I decided to line it with some nice quilting fabric. The lining…
