    I knit, crochet, cross stitch, and do embroidery. I tried to quilt one time, but my mother-in-law told me my stitches weren't tight enough, so I just quit. I found out I love to knit, and crochet, he-he , my mother-in-law don't know how to do that, so she can't tell me how to do that. She can't cross stitch or embroidery either. I am going to try the quilting again though, she has become nicer to me and actually loves me now .

    Anybody got any good patterns? All mine got burned up in my house 1 1/2 years ago. I have replaced my crochet needles, but haven't gotten around to replacing my knitting needles yet. I am going to do that soon.(OMG, Oscar just got in a little bitty drawer, Oscar! get out of that drawer, I don't won't to have pry you out with a crow bar ) Anyway, where was I ? Oh, yes my knitting needles that I don't have yet, I am going to replace them very soon.

    Willie, for quilt patterns, try Marcia Hohn's website. I think it's: thequilterscache.com If that doesn't get it, just Google her name and it should give you the link. Go to the dropdown on the page and it has a category of a gazillion quilt patterns(or something like that). Click on that and you'll get a gazillion great patterns. Instead of hand quilting, try some machine quilting. I find it pretty easy and I love it. The machine does the stitching for you. Have fun!! Please PM me if you can't find the website


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!
