chrisquilter Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Can some one draw a diagram of what exactly "Line Dancing " looks like. I am a little befuddled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffq-lar Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Line Dancing was developed/perfected by Diana Phillips and is a continuous-line quilting that goes from seam intersection to seam intersection, placing the same shaped line segment between. Her website is www.cozy-creations.com She has publications for sale. Here is a photo of some Line Dancing I shared from 2009. Each line segment is the same and illustrated at the bottom. Once you have mastered the CC pathway you will easily be able to translate to more elaborate-looking "Dancing". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srichardson Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Thanks for asking the question Chris. I have wondered the same thing. Thanks also to Linda for her great drawings and explanation.

miss jacque Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Would it be "out of line" to deem Linda, Saint Quilter Saint adivsor, or may just plain ol saint Linda ?? Jacque Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cblevins Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 As a catholic I can tell you to become a saint you have to die first. We certainly don't want that!!! How about we make her a knight? All we need is someone wearing a crown and carrying a sword to be able to do that. Can girls be knights though or would they be knightesses (wow that is a mouthfull). We could call her Knightess Linda R and she could be our knightess in shining armor....ready to save the day for all of us! Does anyone have a crown and sword? Can you tell I took the day off just to chill???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buslady Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Sure glad someone asked about line dancing. There are so many terms on this forum to describe quilting, that it is really confusing. Maybe someone could make a sticky with all the terms explained. Then again it might take a knightesses to do that for all of us new quilters.

Busy Quilting Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 If you do a search on the forumhere or even a google search it will give you definitions, books etc For CC's, TT's and LD'ing. you just need to know what the abbreviations stand for! And if you do a search here for Abbreviations then there is a long list of those on here too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anniquilter Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Well, just so you know, a female Knight is a Dame. Not quite so romantic sounding but Dame Linda could join the ranks of some famous Dames - for example Dame Maggie Smith and Dame Judy Dench to name 2 from the world of theatre and film! Yes, Dame Linda - we need that book - not just for line-dancing plus, but for all the wonderful guidance you give us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cblevins Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I like Dame Linda even better than Knightess Linda! Dame Linda just kind of rolls off your tongue. Anne, do you have a crown and sword???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anne, do you have a crown and sword???? Just so long as no one's tongue trips and calls her "Dam Linda"! And maybe we can knight her (or would that be "dame" her) at the next Moxie meeting!

cblevins Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Goddess is nice but Dame Linda just has a ring to it. Don't you think? Barb, Anne is the authority so maybe she will know if she has to be knighted or damed. Dang it I wish I could be a Moxie! By the way...what is a Moxie anyway??

ffq-lar Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 I'm howling with laughter! You all are hilarious! I worked until 11am today and then trekked to Portland to EESchenk (a fabulous wholesale company) with a quilty pal. Then I get home, settle back with a cup of tea to catch up on the forum....I'm still grinning! Well, I guess I better get going on finishing up the "book"--hoping this great build-up doesn't lead to disappointment! Love you all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammi357 Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 dh has a sword. It's a Marine Corp dress sword, very elaborate and shiny, and I'm SURE he won't mind us using it! lol! The only Crown is the kind that comes in a purple velvet bag, tho, and he's a little particular about THAT! roflol! I drew & quilted a 'line dance' type pattern and didn't even know it! I'm lazy, I don't like stopping and starting! lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyce Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Linda if you hadn't went to E.E Schenk you could have saved money, and worked on your book. There are priorities and we are all waiting for the drawings. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
