Chance learned that he can climb into this cabinet from the back of the couch and went in there. Then Chloe saw him and learned the same thing. This is what I walked in and saw!

What I am working on.. Trying to get my machine to work!

2011-12-10T00:17:00.000-05:00

I switched from a cotton thread to a rayon thread 40 wt.
The machine seems to be much happier. I sew on a cheap domestic sewing machine.

Things to look for when collecting American Quilts.

2011-11-02T22:29:00.000-04:00

Things to look for when Collecting American Quilts
Collective Intelligence gave some good tips.

20). Look for close even stitching.
19) Good points.
18). Thin batting or thin layer in the quilt.
17). Collect African American Quilts
16) Date by youngest fabric.
15). Connect the blue dots for a kit quilt.
14). Never fold the same way twice when storing
13). Hang with even distribution
12). The Alliance for American Quilts
11). Crib Quilts should have compatible borders
10). When looking for Amish Quilts look for solid colors.
9). Avoid dry cleaning quilts.
8). American Institute for Conservation.
7). Take more care of Quilts with dark brown dyes.
6). Repair with Vintage Fabric.
5). Conserve with netting.
4). Don't reject a quilt if it has new binding.
3). When repairing a quilt use only cotton thread.
2). Quilt tops can be a deal.
1). Look for Baltimore Album Quilts.

Well I can hopefully get back to work. This is the first day with my sewing machine after being out of commission for several months, and the first day of having electricity since it has been out for 4 days. I am back to civilization. I forgot how nice it was to have a working machine. I will have to spend a few days teaching myself how to free motion quilt again. I have been working on this project for months hand stitching it, and I was able to complete it in one day with a machine, so I have no idea why people would chose to hand quilt if given the choice... just not for me!
