ohhh salem, mass at halloween. it is a treat, lol actually it is fun, but the traffic is a nightmare. there is a wonderful quilt shop there called marketplace quilts so if u come up, u have a destination.

Morning Cindy, We are in the same boat! I wish it would sail bye already, I need to get off!! Yes, I went thru the change and it really think that's when I started to put the weight on. I did go downstairs and walk 2 miles this morning. I wish I could walk outside but we're having an ice/snow storm. The day will come when I can walk outside again. I'm really downing the water.

I would love to work with you on your daughter's quilt! Wow - tackling a double wedding ring is ambitious on your part! Here is an idea how I charge: for an edge-to-edge pattern .015 cents per square inch - for custom it is .02 cents, or maybe more if you want dense quilting. So, if you want something simple in the centers, and some leaves, etc in the borders, it would be the .02 price. If you want something more special, or feathers with outlining, defined borders, etc., it would be more like .03 cents. (measure length and width and multiply those two numbers, the answer you get for that is multiplied by the price. There is also tax here in Iowa on services, and I'd ask you to pay return shipping.) If you want to send your own batting, anything but Mountain Mist is fine, and I have quilter's dream cotton or poly. Please square up your back, and have it be at least 4" wider and longer than your top, so I can attach it to the machine. Did I answer your questions? Lisa

Hi Cindy, I got information from my sister. She belongs to a guild called Quilters by the Sea in Portsmouth. They have a web site which you can google. She says there is a guild nearer to you but she has heard that they are a bit "snooty" (her words). Her group is VERY friendly and welcoming. They meet on the first Thursday of the month from Sept. to June. Hope you find this information helpful.

Hi Cindy. I love your quilts. Where are you in RI? My sister lives in Jamestown and belongs to a guild somewhere near there. She is what I like to term a quilt artist. She says she just loves to quilt.
