Super Job! -
Yep, turn the SR off, turn up the stitches/speed and go for it! Feathers are completely awesome and so much fun without SR. Curves and McTavishing is a lot of of fun too! Just remember if you pause immediately click on the button to stop your needle so that your thread doesn't break.

Hi Betsy! Welcome to the forum! I can't wait to practice this weekend. I keep repeating all of the designs I learned in my head - over and over...maybe some of them will stick!

Another pic. What, No Stitch Regulator!!! Of course, you know Karen. I'm 3rd from the right - back right. Sandi Zuker is in the middle front. Heidi did a piece on her APQS blog about Sandi's first quilt which was featured in a magazine recently. Sandi's first quilting client was Scott Murkin - a national quilt show judge. The gentleman in the back is Brian Fackler (he's an amazing quilter) and will be featured at MQS - Real Men Who Quilt. Ok, who did I miss?

Ok, finally got motivated to post some pics of the Wild Women classes last week....we had so much fun! Here's a link to all of the pics http://www.yeoldeforest.com/WWPics.html When Karen and Sue told us to turn off the stitch regulator - some of us cried, sighed and whined! Finally, we got over ourselves and got on with the quilting! Can you find the "Deer in the Headlights" pictures? This is what we looked like when we first turned off our SRs! BTW - can you find Rita R, Threadwaggle, Michelle, Gator (Connie), Brenni, Georgene, Kelley, Sandi, Quilting Tina and/or other members of our

It's a telephone conference call. No pictures, no classes. Call Alison and she will give you the code that you use to call into the conference call.- see Heidi's message above for Alison's phone number. Once you get the phone number and code from Alison, you just call in during the specified time and date, enter the code, put your phone on speaker and listen/participate in the call! It's that easy.

What do you call custom quilting?
yeoldeforest replied to Ferret's topic in Gone Quilting...Chat About Anything
I'm more used to the terms: Economy or Basic - E2E or all-over design (.012 to .025/sq inch) Custom - Block work and/or border work (.025 to .06/sq inch) Heirloom - quilt it to death (.06 plus) -
The WILD WOMEN ROCK!! Sue and Karen are the best teachers ever and their trunk is hilarious and well worth the money! It's like getting two trunk shows at once! If they're not careful, they may be doing stand-up comedian soon. Our students loved these two women! So much personality! 1, 2, 3 GO! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! Here's just a few of our student's comments who attend the WW classes last week, "Joanne and Kelley, What a fantastic week. I loved the two workshops I was able to attend and the Trunk Show was great. Thank you so much for hosting the event. I appreciate your efforts in mak

Soft red thread to match Moda fabrics
yeoldeforest replied to veg-girl's topic in Ask The Expert - Thread, Needle, Bobbins
Yvette, So Fine by Superior Threads has a dull red color but it's not variegated. Also, it's a poly that looks like cotton. However, it blends really well with the Moda reds. -

Wild Women of Quilting Trunk Show in NC

Hi Sue, Make sure the pool will be open when you come...we usually don't open pools until closer to May. You may be sitting next to a green pool but it's still a pool, right? The weather is off and on here. Today 65, tomorrow is 75 and then a nose dive to a high of 45 by Fri. The nicest day next week looks like it will be on Monday at 67 then maybe in the high 50s for the rest of the week. Of course the weather is hard to predict past 4 days around here. Of course, when we were in Minn. last March, the weather went from the 70s down to the 20s with snow...so 50s and 60s might not be t -
