October = 2003

***Freda Nicholson. = SAFETY FIRST=20 FOR YOUR IRON Use a serge protector with a switch. = Fasten the=20 serge protector to the wall above the outlet.

*** Stephanie VanDiest. ALLEVIATE = PUCKERING=20 WHEN MACHINE APPLIQU=C9ING. To keep your satin or zigzag = stitch from=20 puckering when doing machine appliqu=E9, use a dissolving = stabilizer under=20 the pieces you are appliqu=E9ing. "Rinse Away" is an excellent, = inexpensive=20 product.

***Karla Moyle. FOOD FOR THOUGHT OR NOT. = One thing=20 I really like about quilting magazines is they don=92t have food=20 advertisements in them.

June 2003

***Nu Bower =96 When you are measuring to = cut 1" or=20 2", etc., strips; the line of the ruler should be the line on top = of the=20 fabric edge (but not right at the edge).

***Sherry Jeff =96 Cutting 101 =96 Want a = smooth=20 straight cut? Pull object to cut to the scissors never closing the = scissors all the way.

***Freda Nicholson =96 I had trouble with = the cross=20 seam on the underside flipping back as it crossed the edge of the = needle=20 plate.

*** Mary Joan Marley. Find a great = idea (or=20 more) in a magazine? Put a 2"x4" sticker on the front with the = name and=20 page number. Do not cover up the date or volume number, in case = you need=20 to refer back to them.

Betty Jo Jones. Using the = appliqu=E9 pressing=20 sheet gets your item hotter so it sticks better using a fusible. = It can=20 also be used for many other craft projects because it is made out = of=20 Teflon, nothing sticks to it.

"A = Mimi=20 Dietrich=92s tip."

***Mary Joan Marley. When you = embroider or=20 appliqu=E9, do you find your thread tangling? Turn your work up = side down,=20 so that the needle and thread hang free-the thread will start to = untwist=20 and hang free.

Sue Pollard. Keep the histories of = your=20 quilts in a special binder (and a special file in your computer). = If=20 nothing else, it is fun to go back and view the quilts that you = have made=20 over a period of years.
