That's the most inventive comment about the flowers I have read from any newbie in all the time I have been a member. "Don't have a vase" I love it.

You don't need a vase, just grab an old wheelbarrow.

As for what you do with them, why, like any flower, you just look at them, they're not good for anything else, you can't buy anything with them and you don't become famous for having more of them than anyone else, so all in all their only value is that you earned them by being part of this wonderful family and taking part in the community, so push that barrow closer and sit back and watch it fill up.
Welcome to Cute, sorry I missed this yesterday.
hugs and roses, Meganne

Well! I am not sure if this is the correct way to get to the top of the page (not that I am competitive or anything like that) I have to say a huge thank you to everyone whom replied to my silly but needy question. I am overwhelmed but both the warmth and help in this room. I can honestly say I have never known anything like it.

Can we imagine, 'If everyone in real life was as warm and considerate as the folks in here, we would all live in a perfect world' May I thank everyone who gave me flowers also, so very kind. I have to add, by the time I am done pestering you all with endless questions, (silly ones to most of you I am sure) you will probably be lining up to take your flowers back! ~x~

Todays question is simple this. I live in an 'old' English country village, miles from everywhere. The nearest shop which sells anything to do with this hobby is miles away and sells very little. So I am having to resort to Ebay to buy what I need.

When I can prize my 3 year old Granddaughter (whom lives with me) from my neck, I try to create and complete all sorts of projects. Mosty the fabric I use is 100% cotton, Egyptain or cotton mix, mainly light to meduim weight. So I am looking for stabiliser to suit. As I really do not want to wash my projects and loose the crispness I thought tearaway stabiliser would be preferably. (Am I correct in my thinking) If so would you kind cuties, take a look at this link and please tell me if this is suitable.

Hugs and kisses, thousands of smiles.

You asked about stabilizer. I really like the Pellon Wash and Gone. If you are using a firm stable cotton fabric that does not stretch this stabilizer washes away. You can hoop it and use a spray adhesive on it as well. Perfect for items that you cannot hoop such as towels. I buy mine from JoAnne's when I have a 50% off coupon. I used to find it a Walmart but they discontinued it. Check online on the Joannes website or just google it. Youu will have fun here at Cute. Tons of knowledge, freebies, and wonderful friends to meet. Have fun! Carolyn *4U

Hello, here are a few tips that were passed to another new Cutie recently.

Clicking "reply" will send the post to the top of the page.
Clicking "comment" under a reply will send the reply to the top of the post but will not send the post to the top of the page.
Experiment on this post of yours. Be sure to click submit under the box you fill out.
Welcome!

By the way. Flowers are for fun, saying thank you, and marking a post you read. Click the flower and it changes color. You can only give one flower to each post and you cannot give yourself one. You also get a flower for coming to Cute ever day. Your flower count will show up under your screen icon.

For more information look to the left on this page and see "tutorials". You can also use the left search engine to help find things that have been tagged.
Glad you found us....its all in time how you learn to navigate...you learn each day something new...WELCOME TO THE CUTE FAMILY...I put the community page as my favorite link..so when I click on it automatically goes here....the tabs you see are public/freebies/personal/private...

public is supposed to be for things that have to do with embroidery or sewing maybe warnings of viruses, etc....

freebies is where you can post freebies you have found and would like to share with others..you can find the links to other sites here for you to go to and download (dl)...

personals is where you find or post things that aren't really for public...these are where prayer requests, illnesses, family things, personal questions go....

private (PM) is an area where just you and the other person you are in contact can see. this is done by clicking on their name it goes to another screen..there is a tab under their name that says PRIVATE MESSAGE...by clicking on it you will be directed to another link to type something for them directly...remember only that person will see it. If you receive a pm from someone, you will see a +1 number on your private tab...this will indicate either one was sent to you or someone has answered the pm you sent...

in the blue area you will see the words designs/redworks/alphabets/lace/applique and cross stitch....these are the designs that our LOVELY VERONIKA (site owner) has placed the designs in..

off to the top you see other tabs designs by cuties or (dbs) is where our talented cuties have digitized their designs and posted them for us to dl...these are free and very much appreciated..

projects is where we post the lovely creations we have made....

reviews is a tab for how we rate different products we have used or have...

bookmarks is another area (before freebie tab) where other sites are for people to see and go to.

Community is where you are now..almost always someone or many can and will answer all your questions...here you find your new family and sooooo many new friends....here we share love laughter and tears..strength and courage to go through life as it is....

If you see a posting you want to go back to, up by the poster name their is a check mark..by clicking on it, you can save it and return to it late...
you also have a tabs that are my questions/my answers/marked...by clicking on one of these you get all the questions you have asked, or all the answers you have made, or the ones you marked by clicking on the check marks...

seasonsglory, that is alway the #1 question - they are just for free and for fun - you will see different amount under everyone's screen name - you now have 23 - you were given 8 just on this question alone. The only place that you can actually see who gives you a flower - is in the project section - after they click on the flower obbosite your name - you can go into the project - by clicking on the title of it - once in there - you can look at the tabs - one says - WHO VOTED FOR THIS DESIGN and COMMENTS - click on the Who Voted and that will show all the screen names of that that gave you a flower. I see you have figured out how to reply to the comments - that is good. Keep coming back and posting and commenting and replying - you will be surprised how fast your garden grows.

eventually a vase wouldn't do. You would need buckets and buckets. To answer your question you just collect them. We pass them for fun by clicking next to the person posting or answering a post. They turn from green to orange which means you just gave that Cutie a flower. They can not be redeemed for anything, but they make us happy. WELCOME TO CUTE. Giving you a flower

Well crafter. You made me giggle, so I gave you one a flower also.. lol. Thank you for explaining. Some kind folk in here must have been giving them to me, how sweet. Do we ever get to know who it is that has given us one.

crafter2243 by crafter2243 03 Mar 2011

No that is a secret, so keep on collecting.
