WooHoo I'm 1 flower off 14000 thank you all who have added to my flower bed, I never thought it would get this full
Calling all Aussie Cuties. I'm in a bit of a pickle. I was given 4 boxes of embroidery thread by the ladies of our church after my 1st stroke. Using my machine became therapy for me. I desperately need your "used" thread cones size doesn't matter can

What do you do if you have a bare wall left in the house? Make a design wall of course. My daughter Kristy and I came up with this out of desperation in where to view layouts of my quilts, seeing I can't get on the floor (if I ever want to get up again)

I am searching for a Harry Potter style design for a book bag for Grandson, he is Potter mad and at 8yrs has read most of the books.. I do hope someone has seen something similar in their travels.. Thanks for taking the time.. Marian
