Episode Information
One of the nice things about this program is that we're not always thinking about the things everybody else in the news media is thinking about. In fact, we almost never are. But it is right that we check in, every so often, on the world of public policy and on some of the major debates gripping the nation right now. And I enjoy doing that with Congressman John Larson. I've known him since his days in the state Senate. He is now the four-ranking Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives. The days when I could sneak into a party claiming I was John Larson -- which I once did -- are over. So we'll run through the hot buttons of the moment: jobs, health care, don't ask don't tell.
And then you and I will meet Connecticut's current state troubadour, Lara Herscovitch -- as our show drifts gently back into its usual hazy state of alternate reality.
You can join the conversation. Leave your comments below, e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com or Tweet us @wnprcolin.

Everything I'm wearing will be hitting the shops soon if it's not already. The hat I bought at H&M months ago though earlier this year but I won't be suprised if they come out with another. It's a classic hat really.
British Babe - we are. My Mum is very happy and I've just posted her the mags that I've appeared in recently so she have a look : )Thank you guys for this. It is amazing really. Ask me a year ago if I thought I'd be in Elle and I'd have laughed my head off.

Do plastic baby bottles cause cancer? I heard I should get some special baby bottles but was not sure if that is true or not.
Charles B. Simone, II, MD, Radiation Oncologist at Penn Medicine responds:
There has been some evidence that drinking from bottles with bisphenol A (BPA) can be harmful. This chemical is similar to a female sex hormone. However, a there is no definitive evidence of a cancer risk with drinking from bottles with BPA. More research is needed to determine if there truly is a risk. However, to be safe, consumers may wish to be cautious and look for BPA-free baby bottles. Many plastic baby bottles and sippy cups are labeled BPA free.
This question and answer was part of the OncoLink Brown Bag Chat Series. View the entire Cancer Risk & Prevention Webchat transcript.
Jan 15, 2014 - Exposure to bisphenol A may increase the risk for prostate cancer later in life, according to an experimental study published online Jan. 1 in Endocrinology.

Yields: 1 (9-inch) pie shell
Total Time: 17 min
U.S. | Metric | Conversion chart |
- 1.5 cup(s) all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
- 5 tablespoon(s) cold butter or margarine, cut up
- 1/4 cup(s) trans-fat free vegetable shortening
- 4 tablespoon(s) (or 5) ice water
- In food processor with knife blade attached, blend flour and salt. Add butter and shortening, and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle in ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing after each addition, until large moist crumbs just begin to form.
- Shape dough into disk; wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate 30 minutes or overnight. (If chilled overnight, let dough stand 30 minutes at room temperature before rolling.)
- On lightly floured surface, with floured rolling pin, roll dough into 14-in. round. Ease dough round into 9 1/2-in. deep-dish glass or ceramic pie plate. Gently press dough against bottom and up side of plate without stretching. Trim dough edge, leaving 1-in. overhang. Fold overhang under; pinch to form decorative edge. Freeze pie shell at least 15 minutes or up to 1 month before filling.
Tips & Techniques
ReciTip: We prefer the ease of the food processor for making pie pastry, but the pie shell can be made by hand: Mix flour and salt in a large bowl. With a pastry blender or 2 knives used scissors-fashion, cut in butter and shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add ice water, mixing well with fork after each addition, until dough is just moist enough to hold together. Complete recipe as in steps 2 and 3.

I love wood blinds and these certainly are attractive.[...]good. The only thing I DON'T like is that Steve's Wallpaper decal shows. The blinds don't have the extra slat at the bottom. So, if you go close to the blinds you see Steve's Wallpaper. Other than that, good blind for the price.
These are great!!!
By H2814D
from Las Vegas, Nevada
Received these blinds and loved the colors (white and cherrywood). The only thing I would change is the width of the blinds (side to side). The length was fine. The inside mount blinds could have been a 1/4 inch wider on both sides (1/2 inch total) to cover more of the window frame. Other than that, I'm very happy.Oh yea, and the white blinds I received had plastic pull knobs. The cherrywood color seems to have wood pulls. The wood is a little nicer looking pull. I guess I didn't know I was getting two different types, but maybe that's the way it is with the color choices I made.I would definitely buy these again...and I will here shortly. I have a couple more windows to do. This time I will add a 1/2 to my width size though.
More Than Met My Expectations!

I don't usually give reviews but as a business owner I had to give credit where it was definitely due! The product is very high quality[...] Besides that, I received more than enough hardware for multiple installation options. Great job guys!

Steve's Brand Blinds
By Georgia Spartan
from Atlanta, GA
Nice product overall. Only hassle was with the bracket install. Screw holes not in the most advantageous position for using power tools. I had to use a manual screwdriver to install. Name brand brackets were easier as I could use electric screwdriver. Other than that, no complaints.
Exceded All Expectations
By Jr. Samples
from White Sulphur Springs WV
My first experience with Steve's Blinds had an exceptional turnout. Simple instructions for sizing provided a perfect fit for my remodel. The head cover was unexpected, but provided an inspiration for a custom treatment that turned out exceptional. Steve's will be used in future remodeling projects.
I would buy this product again.
By Barney
from Springfield, OH
I ordered this for a bedroom for my elderly father that just moved in. It was easy to install; fit perfectly. It is easy for him to operate.

About Me High-end Shopper
We wanted an option to add to our bedroom windows, so we would have privacy and be able to decide how much light to let in, but didn't want curtains. These worked great and the quality was excellent for the price. They look fabulous in the rooms. I will be buying more for other rooms in the future. Also, the swatches were an excellent way to determine my purchase.
Good quality, great price, easy to hang

Love the look of these blinds...adding the decorative binding gives it a custom look for a fraction of the cost elsewhere!
I loved the blinds!
By Donna
from Lakeville, MN
I love these blinds. They are great. My interior designer couldn't believe the deal I got and she felt they were as good as the blinds she wanted me to order from a high-end company. She has added Steve's to her recommendation list. These blinds are not easy to clean. No blind is easy to clean. The beauty is I know when they are dirty and they get cleaned. Other shades collect dust and I could ignore it; my house is much cleaner with wooden blinds and wood floors. It also looks really cool, too.

2x2 Wood blinds
By Gina
from Vancouver,WA
The wooden blinds were absolutely beautiful! My friend purchased similar blinds from a big box store and mine were just as nice with a much better price. I just love them as they added such warmth to my family room.
Thanks Steve's!
By Unclebutter
from Bellingham, WA
We are very pleased with our first time purchase from Steve's. The savings was substantial [...]. I would definetly reccomend Steve's to other home owners.
Excellent quality at a great price
By BlueJay
from New York, NY
The contractor I hired to measure and install the blinds commented on their excellent quality, and blinds are his specialty. I'm glad I did hire him, as the window frames in some places in my apartment are quite crooked, so it would have taken me a LOT longer to install them. I did some price comparisons at local stores and online, and Steve's prices were much lower. The only thing better would be a lifetime guarantee against warping. So far they have held up fine through a very humid and rainy summer.
excellent for the price
By happy
from Laguna Niguel
I was pleasantly surprised at the value of this blind. it's as good as what you can order from the floor of dept stores. The slats seem to be a little warped when you close them down completely but this blind is installed about 15 feet above my head in a loft room so it's extra easy to see any imperfections. I would definitely buy this blind again.
Fantastic Buy!
By Sheryl the nurse
from Dade City, Florida
I replaced very expensive woodent blinds and these are beautiful. I was hesitant because I still have all the other windows on my first floor with my original wooden blinds that cost a lot 5-8 years ago. I am so happy I ordered these. I love the oak color.
you can't do better

By T

Looks great in the room. Keeps out the afternoon sun, easy to control amount of light in the room. Easy to install and easy to use.
What great blinds
By Scott
from Grand Canyon National Park-North Rim
I purchased these for french doors. They look amazing, and are a great accompanament to the room: I consider them furniture, not just window coverings. They're easy to install, but hired a pro to prevent self humiliation. After installed, I could have clearly done this myself. Took a few weeks to arrive, but well worth it. I wish there was a need to purchase more from "Steve's".
Quality products at affordable prices
By Kim
from Northern Minnesota
We put Steve's wooden 2" slat blinds in all the windows of our lake home. They were very easy to install. Staff were very friendly and helpful with our questions before we ordered. The quality is fantastic and the room darkening blinds are excellent in the bedrooms. We have a eastern exposure in our master so we had lots of sunlight in the mornings (earlier than we wanted to get up) The blinds keep it dark; making it perfect for sleeping in the mornings. Vey easy to clean. We have had many compliments as to how beautiful they are. We are so pleased we are planning to purchase them for our winter home as well. Excellent value at an excellent price. We highly reccomend Steve's.
Very pleased or blinds & Steve's
I have no cons with Steve's blinds or their helpful friendly staff. They are both wonderful!!
Extremely Pleased
By Judy
from St. Michael, MN
I am extremely pleased with both the look and the function and to have both is a bonus! Add on top of that the affordability and ease of purchasing the product. I will order again for other styles as well.
Beautful Excellent Quality Stained 2inch
By The Retired Buckhead Atlanta Designer
from Atlanta, Georgia
Steve's Collection is a superior blind at a GreatPrice...even better when on sale. I've decorated ultra high end homes for years so I know what I am talking about. Through the years & in various economic climates, I have always ordered my own blinds from Steve's...for at least 19 years anyway.FIND a local handyman to install, not one reccomended by a blind company. Trust me on this!
Excellent product and service

text: Yes, this is an epic poem, but don't let that put you off. An excellent introduction provides context for the work, while detailed notes on each canto are a virtual who's who of 13th-century Italian politics, culture, and literature. Best of all, Pinsky's brilliant translation communicates the horror, despair, and terror of hell with such immediacy, you can almost smell the sulfur and feel the heat from the rain of fire as Dante--led by his faithful guide Virgil--descends lower and lower into the pit. Dante's journey through Satan's kingdom must rate as one of the great fictional travel tales of all time, and Pinsky does it great justice.

hennies.pennies said...
I'm always looking for those fast projects ... while I LOVE making quilts I never finish them in a timely manner :) thanks for the chance!
basic quilting tutorials would be great for me !! thanks for the chance :)))
I'd love to see more projects using pink (my favorite!), pre-cuts(I love how much time these save) and easy/fast quilt patterns. Sometimes I just want a quilt done quickly where I don't have to think LOL! Is that too much to ask? ;-)
I always love tutorials, and suggestions for gifts to be made! I realized recently (with the excitement over the "many trips around the world" quilt) that it is SO much fun to see different quilters' interpretations of pieced quilts. I cannot think of how to implement that, however, unless you do a quilt along. I have participated in only one -- and liked the quilt so much that I ended up making it larger and not finishing with others -- but I learned alot from seeing the variety within one pieced pattern. Happy New Year!
Would love seeing more projects using half square triangles.. they are so handy and fun!
I'm always happy to see anything on blogs...pictures are a definite must...but tutorials, ideas, suggestions of places to shop, notifications of great sales...all those things are great. =)
Happy New Year!
As a knitter for the past several years, I'm looking for more quilting inspiration to help me get back into quilting again. Some quicker projects as well as a few more indepth projects. Thanks, I look forward to reading your blog this year!
I love ideas for gifts! Some people are so hard to shop for, and it's much more fun to make something than buy a mediocre gift.
I love easy tutorials, and pictures of other peoples projects. That's how I get ideas! Thanks so much!
Would love to see more posts on new fabric lines hitting the stores so I can fuel my fabric addiction. Thanks!
I would love to see smaller projects that are good for gifts or quilts that can be done quickly :)
I would really love to see more free-motion quilt-along skill builders like the ones last year that I couldn't participate in. :)
I love quilt-alongs and quick small project tutorials that use pre-cuts such as charms.
I'd love to see more about people's creative processes.
Love the perfect snowflakes.
Would you post to Australia?
I would like to see some interesting colour combination ideas ... something that's a bit out of the box and modern, while still being feminine and pretty.
I'd like to see more tutorials for wall hangings, as opposed to quilts. I love to make wall hangings, especially seasonal ones.
I'm looking for projects for a fairly novice quilter--and that is my FAVORITE new book!
I love traditional quilts..would love a QAL or mystery quilt. Thank you!
I love QAL. Perhaps a modern quilt QAL. Thanks for the chance to win.
I would love to see some small fast projects but I'm inspired from just about everything.
Small quick projects to share (downloadable projects) along with tutorials that you can download to keep and do at a later date as we can't always get to them right away, nor can we always remember where we saw them.
I'm always looking for quilts using pre-cuts (charm packs are my favorite!) I'm a busy mom (who isn't) and I love using pre-cuts with a great easy peasy instant gratification quilt top, but looks complicated. Maybe that's asking a lot, but I know it's doable! Great giveaway, HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Well there's plenty of BOMs already on the go, but I do miss the classic block tutorial!
I like to hear inspiration for quilts and a story about them. I also like great photos!
Maybe it is just me or because I am about to start one, but I want to see recipes for full bed quilts. Especially king size. Yep, I am going to attempt a king sized pinwheel quilt. Wish me luck or that I will stay sane.
I love projects made with charm packs and really would love to see more mini quilts and/or bags and totes made with charm packs. Thanks for the chance!
I'd like to see more quilt-alongs in Blogland. I just love them. Thanks for the opportunity to win your giveaway.
I always love tutorials, I'm amazed at how creative some people can be. I have just joined 3 quilt-alongs, which I've never done before....and I'm thinking of maybe looking into joining a BEE....yikes! I also love any kind of bag to make.
I don't know about you but in the last couple of weeks I've noticed a slight change in the blogger world I visit...there seems to be more "traditional" with a twist (fresh fabrics) and I'm really liking it.
I know my style is changing, I'm developing my sewing groove, so I am enjoying this new look on the old.
I don't know if it's really changing or if it's just my perception, either way I like it and look forward to more.
Mistakes. :) C'mon ladies, keep it real! ;)
I would love to see more modern stuff..modern BOM, Modern Mystery, etc!
I'd like to see more tutorials and more helpful hints/shortcuts. Thanks for the giveaway!
I would like to see more project ideas for scraps and leftovers. Thanks for the chance to win!
I am new to your blog and have enjoyed what I have read so far. I like to see ideas for small projects and always appreciate the tutorials. I am doing a lot of baby quilts and lap quilts for charitable donations to shelters and hospices and am always on the look-out for simple ideas that look great.
I would love some fast and easy quilts. Happy new year!
What great pictures! I am always looking for tutorials! I love the old patterns, pinwheels, double wedding ring, etc. Thanks!
I would like a tutorial on how you pick you colors... everyone seems to have such great ideas. I really like QAL's as well, even if I don't join and just watch everyone's progress.
I love the projects and tutorials that are shared! Such creativity, I really appreciate everyone being so willing to share!
Happy New Year and lovely giveaway! I'd love to see more of the front end design process for quilts and projects.
I always love a good tutorial or quilt a long. Thanks for the giveaway!
Happy New Year! Because I do better with visuals, I would love to see more tutorials with youtube instructions :-)
I love all of your snow. Looks fantastic. Though I can't name something in particular I like to see more on your blog, I would like to say a big thank you for all that you already share so freely with us. It's blogs like yours that motivate and inspire me, and for that, I am truly grateful.
Just incase I'm a no-reply blogger: firstname.lastname@example.com
I love the variety and range of your tutorials and posts! Just off the top of my head, something more about bags, and gifts, would be nice to see. Thanks for the inspired giveaway!
Thank you for a lovely giveaway! Tutorials are always wonderful! How about some more knowledge of fabric sales? With shipping and fabric prices going up sales are always a great thing to know about! Thank you!
Tutorials! Bags, quilts, blocks - not fussed, just love learning new techniques :o)
Thanks for the great giveaway! I just found the blog today, but with my Christmas sewing machine I'm sure this will come to be a huge resource of knowledge!
It's so nice to see all your snow. I love Winter!
What a great giveaway! I would like to see more shortcuts to quilting, and time saving tips, also how to pick your color combo as well as pattern size picking.
Would love to win your fab giveaway.
I love your blog and all you share with us. I like patterns that look complicated but are really easy to sew. Temple Square is so beautiful during the holidays, isn't it? Thanks for all you do!!
Hi! I would like to see a QAL-even if it's just for something small like a wall quilt; or a hot pad gift set with different blocks for each. Thank you for the chance! ~AmyB
I would love to see more easy tutorials as I am a beginner. Would love to win this book! a(dot)haun(at)sbcglobal(dot)net
Thanks for the chance to win this great giveaway. I particularly love all the great tutorials that people post. They are always very informative. So lots more tutorials. firstname.lastname@example.com
Love your tutorials - we can always use more of those. Being a fairly new beginner, quilts on the easier side are nice, too. I love small projects also. Thanks for the giveaway.
I like pattern ideas and tutorials. Thanks!
I have the first book, and I'm interested in checking out the second. This year I hope to see lots of ideas for low volume quilts (since I just joined my first fabric swap - for low volume charmes)
Really enjoy your blog and appreciate all that you share with us. Love tutorials and quilt-alongs. Thanks for a chance to win a great giveaway!
Anything that has to do with scraps! scraps are growing snd need to do something with them. help! great give away
I'm a newbie so small projects are best for me. Thanks for the chance to win!
So Sorry you were sick, we had it over Christmas here and had to cancel Christmas to New Year's because 90% of family was sick. A lot of disappoint little boys but they were to sick to even open presents. I love tutorials especially ideas with all the new fabric that is out this year. Happy New Year Sandra
I agree that small projects are fun for the immediate gratification. I love your quilts too and look forward to every on!
Love your blog Amy! I would love more tutorials and quilts made from jelly rolls and charm packs or layer cakes. Fingers crossed!
I'm always looking for ideas for small projects - mug rugs, nice hotpads, etc. - using fat quarters, charm squares, strips. Thanks for the inspiration you give us! Happy new year.
I would love to see more crib quilts
I love your pictures of the snow, i wish we had some instead of the never ending rain we're suffering in the UK!
Whilst I love seeing quick projects, I also like the "big" blacks that are around at the moment - finishing at 12" or bigger so you don't need many to finish a quilt!
Thanks for another great giveaway!
Hi! I'm a new self taught quilter, so any tutorials are good tutorials for me! I would appreciate learning some easy gift ideas for teachers, co-workers, etc.
Love your blog and the inspiration you give me. I would love to see more ideas on quilt backs, something so the back is as unique and beautiful as the front.
I enjoy getting inspired by seeing what others are making, especially with unique color combinations. Tutorials and gift ideas are always welcome.
More tutorials and lots of pictures for inspiration.
I love tutorials, pictures of projects, along with comments on how you made this better/easier. I'd also like recommendations for quilting products, like what brand of fusibles you like best, etc. Thanks for the chance to win.
I love to see the projects everyone is coming up with...especially small, easy projects.
Love your blog, I guess I would like to see more quilt blocks but as a quilter with a family I know how hard it is to find sewing time.
I like to see what you are working on. And tutorials are always good. Thanks for the inspiration.
love you blog but mostly quilting I need to learn all I can
More projects using precuts would be fun. Thanks!
Sorry you were sick. There are so many nasty flu-like bugs going around in Ohio. Take care of yourself and get plenty of rest. I go to blogs for friendship and inspiration. I love to see what you and the rest of my blog friends are working on. Thanks for the LOVELY giveaway!
I love quick and simple projects that are easy enough for a near-beginner, but don't necessarily LOOK like they were all that easy-and-simple. ;) Happy New Year!
I would love tips on paper piecing, appliqué and reverse appliqué techniques... lots and lots of pictures of pretty fabrics in yummy colors are enough to make me happy
Jealous of the snow...haven't seen any here in North Carolina yet. I would love to see more Christmas gift ideas. Thanks!
I'm always looking for tips from more experienced quilters.
theresa n
Familiar with everything except the gourmet waffles! Love to see more about the tools you use and love and how they work. Thanks.
Hi! I just found your blog recently and enjoy your posts. I'm new to quilting so I am learning from anything I read on the subject. I do have a question. Do you foresee any problems with making a quilt using corduroy squares mixed in with lightweight cotton upholstery fabric?
Have a great evening!
i love everything about bloogs especially reading and seeing pictures of where people live
Thanks for the opportunity! I think I need less in the blogging world :) Or more willpower to walk away from looking at the beautiful pictures of what everyone else is creating so that I can make something myself!
I love how impromptu quilts alongs are featured that are no pressure and fun. I also love a good tutorial and when a quilter shows the entire process of quilting including how they picked the colors/prints.
More information and tips on free motion quilting would be awesome. I have moved away from quilting because I get so frustrated that I can't do it beautifully like all yours and other awesome quilters.

Snowflakes... I haven't seen a single one yet this winter - all we've had is rain. Nevermind. Well, I would love to see more linen in the quilting world and in a variety of projects. I adore it! Fab giveaway - amycav at hotmail dot com
I would really like to see tips and techniques on machine quilting using your home sewing machine. It's such a pain pushing a large quilt through a small opening.
Happy New Year!
I would like to see more video tutorials. Sometimes it is hard to follow written tutorials and video can really liven things up. Thanks for the giveaway. It's very generous of you!
I love using charm packs and jelly rolls so anything using them would be appreciated. QAL's would be fun and some projects for new babies as I have quite a few friends who are having them this year.

I like well written tutorials. Not on your blog, but sometimes I have a hard time following the instructions because they seem to leave out crucial details.
I would like pre cut friendly quilt tutorials, but appreciate so much, any tutorials!

I love to see a really great tutorial with step by step pictures.
I would love to see more basics on modern quiliting!! Thanks, Audrey firstname.lastname@example.com
Hi, Amy! So sorry to hear you were sick, but hope you will be back to 100% soon. Although I love your blogs and find the photos to be excellent, have you every considered offering short instructional videos? They are fairly cheap to produce and would be a great way to demo specific techniques. Feel better soon and Happy New Year to the whole family!
Susan Rink
I value anything I read in blogs especially tips & tricks. I would like to see more on quilting with your domestic machine.
Thanks so much for a chance at the give-away!

I'm always a fan of any tutorial that helps use up scraps; quilts, pouches, placemats, whatever, so long as my carefully saved leftover bits can be put to good purpose.
Thank you for such a nice giveaway! What I'd like to see in the blogging world for 2013 are smaller projects featuring modern design and the use of pre-cut fabrics. :)
I get super excited when I see a tutorial on how to do things easier. It's also great to see small little projects. Thanks for the give away!
I would like to see some fast and unique ideas. Whether they are quilts, crafts or gifts that can be made. Basically new, fresh ideas. Thank you for the giveaway :)
Thank you for such a wonderful giveaway! Oh, how I'd love to win! I would love to see more quick little projects, I especially love combining embroidery with quilting. Be especially blessed!
I love the giveaway! Thanks for the chance!
hmm...maybe quick and easy patterns and ideas for FMQ. Maybe more of the same...especially from your blog. Thanks!
I love quick instant gratification projects! What a great giveaway!
I like to see ways of using precuts and also scraps, I've not been quilting long but seem to be accumulating a fair bit of both.
Great giveaway! I would to see more items that are not quilts to sew for decorating and gift giving. Thanks Mary
I would enjoy more examples of quilts and projects using precuts and any that use up scraps. Thanks for all your wonderful inspiration!
I'd love to see tutorials on short cuts to cutting fabrics for projects. Sometimes I get really slowed down in the cutting and I am bit hesitant to try new ways!
Thanks for such a wonderful giveaway, very generous!
Quick projects, please! I have 4 kids!!
I'd like to see more collaboration between bloggers!
Thanks for offering the giveaway! Things I'd like to grow in this year, and so things I'll be looking around for on blogs are: small hand-sewing projects, embroidering words onto quilts, and tips or examples of quilting using a regular sewing machine and walking foot.
Thanks for asking everyone for suggestions. What a great way to begin the new year! I too would like to see projects made with precuts as well as quick and easy gift projects as well. Money is tight, so making presents that are cute are a must!
Love your photo of the lights in downtown Salt Lake..so pretty!
I'd love to see more tutorials on machine quilting on a regular sewing machine and how to adjust the tension so the back isn't all loopy! (Can you tell what I have problems with? :))
Hope you are all over the sickies! We have a head cold/sinus mess going around work right now & I have caught it, tho almost over it now!
Thanks for the fin give away!
Sandy A
I've been very happy with what the blogging world has been offering... So I'm looking forward to another great year!
I'm satisfied with how things are. I am always grateful to see tutorials and pictures as I am a fairly new quilter. Thanks for the giveaway but I think you deserve something for all the time devoted to your wonderful blog. Thank you so much for such enjoyment.
First, I really enjoy your blog and find it inspiring and very helpful. I would like to see more tutorials with precuts.
Hi Amy, I'm with the others who have asked for more tutorials for small gift items. I'd also love to see more projects for hand-stutchers/piecers/quilters. I love hand-stitchable take-along projects for when my quilt buddies and I get together for a stitch and chat. Looking forward to a great 2013.
I would like to see anything someone is willing to share. I love being about to share my own sewing/quilting projects and like to see others to add to my inspiration.
I can't think of anything more than what's already out there. I would like to see more BOM's than QAL's, but since I've already found two I think I am good to go! What beautiful lights!
Easy to make projects. And maybe bags. I love bags. :)
I would have to say that tutorials are one of the best things about blogs. I enjoy seeing how other people do their quilts. I've gotten so many helpful hints that way. Thanks for the chance to win. I really enjoy your blog.
I love to see the tutorials and simple tips on how to make quilting easier.
I always like to see pretty girly quilts. I also like it when the bloggers are able to tell me what the fabric is called so I can get me hands on some :-)
I love tips and tricks and lessons learned. :) Thanks for the giveaway and a very Happy New Year to you!
Tutorials for smaller quilts...thanks for chance to win these awesome prizes!
I just love to see quilts, quilts, and more quilts. I love to see what everyone is up to and learn from their ideas. Happy New Year!
I would like a bit more help re: putting colors together. This is difficult for me so I tend to follow previous pictures instead of striking out on my own.
I'd love to see some more English Paper Piecing! Something other than hexagons. Happy New year, I hope 2013 will be good to you!
I'd like to see more tutorials for wall hangings or smaller projects that are good for gifts or quilts that can be done quickly :) I have a bare wall in my sewing room and would like to make some small quilts to display on it. Thanks for the chance to win.
I would love to win the inspiring book!, Fabric is ALWAYS welcome, as well:). I haven't done a Quilt-a-Long yet and would like to try one with a trusted leader. I also would like to know about color choices
I don't know that there's something I'm not seeing that I do want to see from quilt bloggers. I love getting lost in the beautiful photographs (love yours) and dreaming about fabrics I see (since there really isn't much room for them in my stash). Maybe what I'd like to see is effective ways to use stash in more quilts (I see lots of ideas for using stash in other sewing projects, but I know it's the quilts that will stick around for a while.)
I would like to see projects that could be done in a couple hours to make as gifts! I love quilts to make always. Happy New Years! Thanks for the wonderful giveaway!
How about more give aways? :) Just kidding! A quilt-a-long would be nice. I just finished Bonnie Hunter's Easy Street - well, okay the quilt isn't actually finished just yet, but hopefully in a few days. I always like your tutorials, too - especially for quick and easy projects. Thanks for the chance to win!
Beautiful lights!!
I'd be happy seeing a bit more ideas/help/suggestions for quilting (the actual quilting part - free-motion, using my walking foot, etc.)
Thanks for the giveaway. I've enjoyed following along with your blog.
I love seeing mini quilts that teach something along with them. Read: a tutorial for cathedral windows built in with a 36x36-ish quilt that I can be proud of :)
Thanks for this giveaway!
I really like tutorials and the names of fabric!! you have a great blog and I so appreciate all of your tips!! I basically learned to quilt from you!
I am partial to the smaller, mini quilts that can be made out of scraps and go together quickly and can be displayed in a multitude of places.......
Tutorials are always helpful also.
Happy New Year to you and your family.
Hi Amy, and Happy New Year!
I'd love more tutorials on easy, quick quilts...
thanks for the giveaway and stay blessed!
I am always interested in tutorials & patterns. These are very helpful to me.
I am also interested in projects (large or small) that use fabric scraps.
Thanks for the chance to win!!
I have been following your blog for months. I really like step by step tutorials on anything. Thank you! Diana B.
It seems like I have the hardest time finding just the right project for a fat quarter bundle - seems funny, doesn't it? But I usually end up petting them for ages before I find a good fat-quarter friendly design. So I'd like to see more of those!
Thanks for the chance to win!!
Amy - I absolutely LOVE your blog! I am a new quilter and have always been intimidated by quilting. Your blog has helped me SO much :-) Your tutorials are clear and well-documented, giving ME the confidence to go forth and try new things... AND end up with a nice finished product as well. I vote for your fantastic tutorials - though I will totally enjoy whatever you do, I am sure of it! Thank you so much :-)
I'd love to see more tutorials for quilts and smaller sewn items using precuts or scraps. Oh, the more pictures the better. Thanks so much for the giveaway. ;-> Toni Anne
I love to see tutorials. Especially tutorials that make scary (aka traditional) blocks seem easier. As a relatively new quilter, I would love to try to make some traditional blocks, but they always seem so difficult. Thanks for the great giveaway! Esther (lenahan at zoomtown dot com)

Hollywood glamour! Jessica had one of the best looks of the night at the 2014 MTV Movie Awards on April 13. We spoke to her hairstylist and are sharing his exact tips so you can look like a bombshell too!
Celebrity hairstylist Davey Newkirk worked his magic on Jessica Alba to give her glossy, loose waves for a playful, glamourous look at the Movie Awards. Follow these easy steps below — it's the perfect look for Prom!
Jessica Alba At 2014 MTV Movie Awards — Sexy, Pretty Waves
Here's how to get the exact look with the steps Davey used on Jessica for her sexy red carpet hair:
1. Start by applying John Frieda Luxurious Volume Fine to Full Blow-Out Spray all over wet hair.
2. Blow out hair using a large round brush — this gives tons of volume and a lot of shine.
3. After blow drying, part hair into 2 inch sections (starting from the nape and working up).
4. Curl the hair with a large 1 ½ inch curling iron. Secure each section with a duckbill clip and allow each curl to set.
5. Once curls are set, removed the hair clips and gently brush out curls with a flat brush.
6. Take a small amount of John Frieda Frizz Ease Secret Weapon Touch-Up Crème and smoothed it through hair to achieve a perfectly smooth look.
7. With a large comb, part hair and smooth it down with a touch of John Frieda Frizz Ease Clearly Defined Gel.
8. To finish and lock the style, spray John Frieda Luxurious Volume All-Day Hold Hairspray.
Jessica wore earrings by Dana Rebecca Designs, Graziela Gems and Rona Pfeiffer as well as rings by Derek Lam & Jamie Wolf, Rona Pfeiffer and Melissa Kaye Jewelry.
Do you think Jessica had the best hair at the MTV Movie Awards? See more beauty in the gallery attached and tell us, HollywoodLifers!

Yawning involves opening the mouth involuntarily while taking a long, deep breath of air. This is usually done as a result of drowsiness or weariness . Excessive yawning is yawning that happens more often than expected, even if drowsiness or weariness is present.
Excessive yawning
Follow the treatment for the underlying cause.
The health care provider will get your medical history and do a physical examination.
Medical history questions may include:
Tests that may be ordered include those to diagnose medical problems the health care provider thinks you may have.

Croup is breathing difficulty and a "barking" cough. Croup is due to swelling around the vocal cords. It is common in infants and children.
Viral croup; Laryngotracheobronchitis - acute; Spasmodic croup
Croup is most often caused by viruses, such as parainfluenza RSV, measles, adenovirus, and influenza. It tends to appear in children between 3 months and 5 years old, but it can happen at any age. Some children are more likely to get croup and may get it several times. It is most common between October and March, but can occur at any time of the year.
More severe cases of croup may be caused by bacteria. This condition is called bacterial tracheitis.
Croup may also be caused by:
The main symptom of croup is a cough that sounds like a seal barking.
Most children will have mild cold symptoms for several days before the barking cough becomes evident. As the cough gets more frequent, the child may have trouble breathing or stridor (a harsh, crowing noise made when breathing in).
Croup is typically much worse at night. It often lasts 5 or 6 nights. The first night or two are most often the worst. Rarely, croup can last for weeks. Talk to your child's doctor if croup lasts longer than a week or comes back often.
Children with croup are most often diagnosed based on the parent's description of the symptoms and a physical exam. Sometimes a doctor will listen to a child cough over the phone to identify croup. In a few cases, x-rays or other tests may be needed.
A physical exam may show chest retractions with breathing. When listening to the child's chest through a stethoscope, the health care provider may hear:
An exam of the throat may reveal a red epiglottis. A neck x-ray may reveal a foreign object or narrowing of the trachea.
Most cases of croup can be safely managed at home. However, you should call your health care provider for advice, even in the middle of the night.
Steps you can take at home include:
Your health care provider may prescribe medicines, such as:
Your child may need to be treated in the emergency room or to stay in the hospital if he or she:
Medicines and treatments used at the hospital may include:
Rarely, a breathing tube through the nose or mouth will be needed to help your child breathe.
Croup is most often mild, but it can still be dangerous. It usually goes away in 3 to 7 days.
The tissue that covers the trachea (windpipe) is called the epiglottis. If the epiglottis becomes infected, the entire windpipe can swell shut. This is a life-threatening disease.
If an airway blockage is not treated promptly, the child can have severe trouble breathing or breathing may stop completely.
Most croup can be safely managed at home with telephone support from your health care provider. Call your provider if your child is not responding to home treatment or is acting more irritable.
Call 911 if:
Wash your hands frequently and avoid close contact with people who have a respiratory infection.
Many cases of croup can be prevented with immunizations. The diphtheria, Haemophilus influenzae (Hib), and measles vaccines protect children from some of the most dangerous forms of croup.
