I love all the reds and blacks together.
The tote on the cover is calling my name.
I don't buy their thread any more (although I have some that a number of years old), I'm always afraid that it's too linty. Maybe that's not true.

Date: 1/10/13 8:41 AM Their thread is a bit linty, but as long as you clean after every bobbin- it is great thread. My machine seems to love it.
I love Connecting Threads fabrics and kits too. |

Date: 1/11/13 7:09 AM I just started using their thread I didn't really find it to be that linty. And the price is right especially if you buy the sets. ------ quiltingwolf.blogspot.com |

Date: 1/11/13 7:16 AM I have to chuckle about linty thread because I'm not getting the problem. Fabric is just as linty, and you still have to clean your machine.   ------ "We don't impose our rhythm on Nature. The key is to respect and live within Her." Jean-Charles Boisset, Winemaker

Date: 1/11/13 10:55 AM I bought the bloomin stars wall hanging kit and a bunch more fabric from the Rose Manor set. Those colors go with my decor perfectly. I will use the wall hanging as a table cloth! I also am beginning to buy fabric when they have sales. I am NOT a quilter so have zero cotton stash.

Date: 1/11/13 1:11 PM uh oh...I went back in to "look". I find the mirage fabrics are wonderful for just stash...and then I thought I could make more things with that Rose Manor collection/ the colors are a perfect match in my den... and then I saw some good stash stuff in the clearance...well needless to say...my cart was obscene. Thimbleberries Lynette Jensen says stash is 1 yard of what you like, 3 yds if it's really good and 6 yards if it's terrific. UH-OH!!!!!
I plan to dump the fabric in a vinegar and water color set process before I wash it.
It's all y'alls fault...I never would have done it without your leading me to my demise. -- Edited on 1/11/13 1:12 PM -- ------ "The problem is not that there are problems. The problem is expecting otherwise and thinking that having problems is a problem." Theodore Rubin
