HARRISON, N.Y. – U.S. Rep. Nita M. Lowey (D-Westchester/Rockland), senior Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee, released a statement regarding the recent rocket attacks against Israel.
"I join the Administration in condemning the barrage of rockets being fired against Israel from Gaza, which now threaten millions of innocent Israelis," Lowey said.
"The government of Israel is responding as any responsible country would: protecting its citizens to the best of their ability while going after the terrorists who are responsible for such ruthless aggression. Hamas' actions only further demonstrate their complete disregard for their own people and their intent to wreak havoc on innocent Israeli citizens.
"As I've said before, any Palestinian government that includes the terrorist organization Hamas cannot possibly be a viable partner for peace with Israel and is therefore not an entity that will, or should, receive U.S. financial support.
"I believe President Abbas has a clear understanding of this, as well as his choices going forward. I continue to encourage him to stand against Hamas aggression and do what is best for all Palestinians. I stand ready to implement U.S. law to the maximum extent possible should he continue to choose to partner with terrorists."

Working with Images in Scribus
Apart from text, images are probably the most commonly used objects in Scribus or any other layout application. The basics of working with images in Scribus are mostly straightforward, but there are some methods and resources that you might miss, especially at first.
Like any other object, images in Scribus are placed in frames that are visible when you click an image, and that include six control points to help you move or manipulate the image. For images, the frame is color-coded red, but otherwise image frames work much like any other frame, being movable either by dragging with the mouse -- preferably with the grid turned on -- or by adjusting its properties by entering exact figures. Just like any frame, image frames can also be locked to prevent editing, moved to another layer, altered in shape, exported to PDF, or copied to the Scrapbook for use with other pages or project.
Most of the unique options for an image are available in the context menu that pops up when you right-click anywhere within the frame. They include options for both adding a new image and for editing an existing one.
Adding an image
Scribus gives you several options for adding an image and its attendant frame. You can, of course, copy and paste from within Scribus, or select Windows -> Scrapbook and drag an image from the Scrapbook into a document.
However, the most common method is to select Insert -> Image Frame or press I, and then draw the frame by dragging with the mouse. You are left with the visible frame with an X through it.
From there, right-click in the frame to display the context menu, and select Get Image to select an image in a file-manager. Scribus supports all common image formats, so you are unlikely to have trouble using the image of your choice.
However, at this point, a problem arises: Unless you have the foresight to open the image in another application first, the frame is unlikely to fit the image it now holds.
If it doesn't, all you need to do is select Adjust Frame to Image from the context menu to adjust the frame automatically. For some unknown reason, the opposite function is not in the context menu, but you can access it from the context menu by selecting Properties -> Image -> Scale to Frame Size, after which you may need to select Adjust Frame. Often, changing the image size rather than the frame size will be the easiest option, especially if the image is larger than the frame but you need to fit the frame into a precisely-defined space.
Once the image is inserted, you may want to change its dpi (resolution) by selecting Properties->Image. A resolution of 72 or 96 dpi is fine for online display, but for printing -- which is what Scribus is designed for, you want a minimum of 300 dpi. For higher quality work 600 or 1200 dpi might be preferable.
Depending on your computer's RAM, adding images in a higher resolution may slow down the screen rendering of your document. For this reason, after you have added an image, you might consider unselecting Image Visible from the context menu. Alternatively, you can set Preview Settings to Low Resolution or Normal Resolution. With either item, you can always change the setting if you need to see how the image actually looks.
Editing Images
Scribus is a layout application, not an image editor. For this reason, you can only edit in limited ways in Scribus. Almost always, the best way to adjust an image in Scribus is to select Edit Image from the context menu and open an external editor. This editor is set in File -> Preferences -> External Tools -> Image Processing Tool, and is usually The GIMP. Whatever your external image editor, it will work with the original file, so you might want to make a backup copy before making changes.
After editing in an external editor, your changes generally do not show in Scribus. If it doesn't, you need to select Update Image from the context menu.
Update Image is also a useful way of altering an image without deleting the original. Since Scribus links to images, instead of embedding them in documents as OpenOffice.org can do, changing the original image -- or replacing it altogether -- then selecting Update Image can be an efficient way of working, so long as the new image has the same dimensions as the original.
Within Scribus, you can also apply a limited number of filters by selecting Image Effects on the context menu. You can apply multiple filters, including ones like Sharp more than once, viewing each change in a preview pane before selecting the OK button to apply your chosen settings. Filters are applied to the presentation of the image in Scribus -- and not to the original document.
Beyond the Obvious
As you can see, the finer points of adding images in Scribus are not always as obvious as they could be. Depending on how you are accustomed to working, you may also find some features lacking; personally, I would appreciate a way to change the file path without editing the saved file.
However, once you are aware of a few peculiarities, adding images in Scribus presents only mild problems. After you add or modify the first half dozen images, you will probably find working with images in Scribus presents few if any difficulties.

Some decent video tutorials to get you going
I trawled through loads of Scribus video "tutorials" before coming across these ones (decent pace and lots of info). I hope I can save you some time!
What a coincidence
I suggested a Scribus/Inkscape/GIMP presentation for Drupal Design Camp LA:
Thanks, for the resource, Bruce!
Miguel Hernandez is the Founder & Head Geek at the OpenMindz Group, an IT consulting and web development firm in Los Angeles, California.
The manual is a bit daunting, but your articles make it easy and a joy to get started with Scribus.
Thanks again.

Hotel is nothing special. Inside this place could be in Osaka, Philadelphia, Lyon, Manchester or any other of the world's secondary cities. Zero Africa feeling. Service slow (was in group of 7 and check-in took 25 minutes, we waited at bar for this to be completed.). Rooms - average, restaurants - average, food - average (and mostly Italian or other non-African) everything - average. While this sounds boring and unimpressive, for Africa this is actually good news as often you get unexpected "surprises". So although a hotel you will have rightfully forgotten 1.24 seconds after checkout this may be a positive for an African destination...

A Mumbai court on Friday issued summons to Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tewari to remain present before it on April 7. The summons was issued on the basis of Bharatiya Janata Party leader Nitin Gadkari's complaint of defamation against the Congress leader.
Mr Tewari, in a press conference in 2010, had allegedly named Mr Gadkari in the Adarsh scam.
Mr Gadkari has claimed that Mr Tewari is guilty of criminal defamation, which is punishable under section 500 of the Indian Penal Code.
"He had levelled allegations against Mr Gadkari about ownership of a benami flat in Adarsh society. Even the state government-appointed judicial panel's report is out now. Nowhere has Mr Gadkari been mentioned. The court took cognisance of the matter today and issued summons to Mr Tewari," Rameshwar Gite, advocate for Mr Gadkari, told The Hindu.
According to the complaint filed by Mr Gadkari in the metropolitan court last month, Mr Tewari, in a press conference, had made defamatory statements against him way back in November 2010. "I say that the Accused has uttered defamatory falsehoods against the Complainant maliciously and recklessly knowing the same to be false. I say that the imputation against the Complainant has not been substantiated by an iota of evidence. I say that they are the unfounded reckless assertions of a beleaguered spokesperson of a ruling party discredited by the several corrupt activities of its members and a shoddy attempt at salvaging the reputation of the ruling party by favouring leading political Opponents with the same taint as afflicts the former," the BJP leader's complaint has alleged.
It has claimed that Mr Tewari was sent a legal notice soon after his utterances in November 2010, asking him to render an unconditional apology, which he had failed to do.

Spray coverage for insects
This sounds like a simple question, but have never seen this addressed. When spraying Once and Done or other insecticides, do you spray the whole tree? or just around the fruit. I would hate to spray the whole medium size peach tree if there is only a dozen fruit on it.
How long does it take to kill them?.
Label says "Spray to wet all infested plant surfaces"
Reading the label carefully it does not specifically say you can use it on fruit, it just says "fruit tree". That was probably intentional on their part.
And would you consider the whole tree infested for 4 plum curculio? seems like a waste.
Hi Matt-
It's true, I haven't seen this question asked or answered before. And I admit, I guess I don't know the answer. But, then again, I'd say it rarely applies to me. I would only very rarely just spray an insecticide. Normally, it's a fungicide, insecticide, and perhaps some deer spray for good measure. If I were to spray just an insecticide, I suppose I'd focus/concentrate the spraying on the fruit areas... and then the rest of the tree would get a light spraying of overspray, etc. Hopefully the experts here will correct me if I'm way off base. Also, I think as your tree matures, you'll get fruit throughout your tree and this will be come a moot point. Hope this helps,
IMO, you only need to spray the entire tree if you are protecting the foliage. Nothing on any label ever insists you spray a plant in its entirety- at least with the intent of making it a legal requirement. Why would it? If the label is worded in a way that suggests you must spray the whole plant it is not the intention and it is unenforceable. I can see no way in which spraying fruit only represents an environmental risk beyond what would be created by spraying one plant and not the one next to it, which might create a better chance of pests developing resistance.
If the pest you are targeting eats only the fruit, even this would be a non-issue.
In the case of Triazide, I think it would be a major plus to spray fruit only- you probably would avoid killing the beneficials this way. That is a key danger in the use of pyrethroids they say.
Glenn, I sometimes make two rounds of spraying just because the focus is different. Last weekend I first hit my peach/plum with Surround and disease control on the limbs where fruit was, and then I did another spray of spinosad for the shoot tips only. Shoot tip sprays for OFM this time of year is an important tactic. Matt, if you are spraying peaches for OFM then the tips are critical now, not just the fruit. For the current OFM generation I find nearly all my infestations of OFM are in the tip, not in the fruit, so I don't really even need to bother with the fruit protection.
I don't think there is a clear answer of whether multiple passes helps, but I like the focus of "get the tips!" and then "get the fruits!" rounds and if I try to do both at once I will often get too focused on one and forget the other. For tips I hold the sprayer really high and let it rain down, and for fruits I am holding the sprayer low and spraying up a lot (the fruits are more uncovered from the bottom side).
The reason I spray the entire tree, is that I am really upset with borers. I was way too late spraying for them four years ago when I planted my first trees. Due to not enough knowledge about sprays and spraying, lost two major trees because of borer presence. I also keep my trees no taller than 10 feet tall, so I can reach the tops with my sprayers. Better safe than sorry when it comes to fruit trees! Mrs. G
Before I started this thread, I ended up spraying nectarines, cherry, peaches, asian plums, american plums, and apples on Wed. just the fruit areas and some surrounding foliage(estimating about 50% of the tree got sprayed with Once and Done plus Nufilm-17), Then Thursday night checked to see if there was any additional damage from PC. One plum had 5 hits and a few nectarines got hit. Other than that not much else. I did kill 3 by hand, 2 on the nectarines and 1 on apples.
Thanks all for your input.

Skullcandy is undergoing quite a bit of adjustment in its corporate offices. Its CFO, Kyle Wescoat, has resigned to "pursue other opportunities" in his home region of Southern California. The company said it has launched a search for a successor; Wescoat will stay on through September or so while Skullcandy hunts for a replacement.
Bit late to the party, I see.

About Sheriff Riley:
Sheriff Riley was appointed Sheriff January 1, 2014, and then was elected to his four-year term as Sheriff in January 2015.
Bruce comes from a line of law enforcement as his great grandfather; Robert Walker was the Sheriff of Franklin County Nebraska from 1909 to 1923. Bruces grandfather, Charles Walker, was a deputy Sheriff in Franklin County as well.
Bruce Riley is a native Linn County resident growing up in Albany, Oregon. He holds an Associates of Science Degree in Criminal Justice from Linn-Benton Community College and has attended many classes that relate to executive level law enforcement training. This includes the 227th session of the FBI National Academy in Quantico, Virginia, the 62nd session of the FBI Law Enforcement Executive Development Seminar also held in Quantico, Virginia and the 106th session of the National Sheriffs Institute held in Colorado.
Bruce began his law enforcement career in 1985 when Sheriff Ken Goin swore him in as a Reserve Deputy Sheriff. After serving as a Reserve Deputy for a short time, was hired as a full-time Patrol Deputy on June 1, 1987. Riley was promoted to Corporal in 1994 and then to First Sergeant in 1998. In 2005, he was promoted to Captain and assumed the duties as the Patrol Division Commander. In 2009, Bruce was promoted to Undersheriff, where he managed overall Sheriffs Office operations. Bruce has served as an instructor in several law enforcement related disciplines, received numerous certificates and awards, from the sheriffs office and local community.
In 1990, Bruce was chosen to be the first DARE Officer for the Sheriffs Office. He implemented the program in all the rural Linn county Schools and taught the core anti drug curriculum for two years, which also raised thousands of dollars in donations to help fund the program.
Bruce is a member of the FBI National Associates, FBI National Associates Oregon Chapter, Oregon State Sheriffs Association, Tangent Rural Fire Protection District Board of Directors, Lebanon Chamber Executive Board of Directors and Albany Optimist Club.
Sheriff Riley and his wife currently live in Tangent. They have three adult children and one granddaughter.

Winter, 2014
– After a long, nearly nine year career with the Linn County Sheriffs Office, K9 Deputy Hondo will be hanging up his leash to live a leisurely life of retirement.
During Hondos entire career, he was partnered with Deputy John Trenary. As you can imagine, the bond between Deputy Trenary and Hondo was very strong, making the two inseparable. Hondo was deployed over 500 times in his career and is credited with finding over 185 pounds of illegal drugs (marijuana, methamphetamine, heroin, and cocaine) with a total street value of approximately $750,000.
Alerts from Hondo also led to the location and seizure of nearly 700 pieces of drug paraphernalia, over 100 items of MDMA (commonly referred to as ecstasy) and prescription controlled substances comingled with illegal drugs, and over $126,000 in currency from drug sales proceeds.
The children who swarmed around Hondo at school presentations and public appearances, loved him. His friendly, happy demeanor made Hondo an incredibly effective ambassador to the Linn County community; humanizing our office to the citizens we serve.
Unfortunately, Hondos arthritis is preventing him from continuing his career. Medically, he is no longer suited for law enforcement. Though his back might be failing, his spirit is just as energetic and fun loving as ever. Hondo has certainly earned an extravagant retirement of table scraps, belly rubs, and lounging with his family.
Deputy John Trenary has done an incredible job as Hondos handler, which is evident in the accomplishments Hondo has had in his career. We recognize the time, training, and dedication it takes on and off duty to be a successful K9 team. Hondo will have nothing but the best as he lives out his golden years with the Trenary family.

flush mounted light for bathroom ceiling
Any recommendations for a small neat flush mounted light for a bathroom ceiling? There will be lights at the medicine cabinet, but this will be for general room light -- everything from reading on the toilet to lighting the shower. Someone recommended an Access light with a halogen bulb, but shouldn't we be trying to use compact fluourescent bulbs?
Recessed lights are a poor choice for general illumination of a room, because they are all direct light and no indirect light (indirect is the part reflected off the walls and especially the ceiling). You will get better room illumination with a conventional surface mount or pendant light.
Perhaps others have, but I have never felt the need for dimming a bathroom light.
I like this style. If you're "reading on the toilet" you'll want at least a 2 bulb fixture above you.

We've reached a point where you pretty much have to say that if the Los Angeles Clippers are going to make their Western Conference Semifinals series into a competitive contest, they're going to need San Antonio to hurt itself. They're going to need mistakes, mental breakdowns, missed shots, and some good old fashioned luck. They're…

Game 2 — where we see how fast the Clippers can learn
May 17, 2012, 7:20 PM EDT
Game 1 was a dominant Spurs performance that evoked memories of the championship teams in San Antonio — this version is more offense than defense, but the unselfish ball movement and team concepts were the same. The Clippers looked like a team still learning to play at that level. Thursday night in Game 2 we'll…

Ab Rocket?
Does anybody have one? What do you think of it, is it worth the cost?
Following are comments on three ab exercisers in the Feb 09 issue of Consumer Reports:
1. Ab Rocket ($100): Most Ab Rocket exercises were slightly less effective than traditional abdominal exercises in our tests, and the head position bothered some. Diet plan was sound but lacked specifics abut food amounts and diet duration. Good for most beginners, but we found sit-ups slightly more effective.
2. Rock-N-Go Exerciser ($230): Panelists agree that the machine was easy to use, but they didn't feel it provided a workout. Some felt ridiculous or creepy on this machine. Our tests showed it was less effective at engaging abdominal muscles than conventional exercises performed with no equipment on an exercise mat.
3. Red Exerciser DX ($175): As we reported in February 2008, the "core twist strides" in the infomercial and some advanced exercises in the video engaged obliques at least as much as comparable floor moves but might not work abs as well. Good for obliques, but those 4 inches aren't going anywhere without serious dieting. Diet plan provides sound advice, but no maintenance plan.
I don't own any of them, but thought this info might be of some help. Good luck!

Small Business:
Status of Small Disadvantaged Business Certifications
GAO-01-273: Published: Jan 19, 2001. Publicly Released: Feb 20, 2001.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-8984
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The federal government has an annual, governmentwide procurement goal of at least five percent for small disadvantaged businesses (SDB). SDBs are eligible for various price and evaluation benefits when being considered for federal contract awards. SDB firms must have their SDB status certified by the Small Business Administration (SBA). Because of concerns over reports that fewer businesses were receiving SDB certification than expected, GAO examined the SBA certification processes to (1) determine the number of businesses that SBA had certified as socially and economically disadvantaged since the implementation of the Small Disadvantaged Business Certification program and (2) obtain views on reasons for the current difference in the number of SDB certifications from the number that had previously self-certified as SDBs. SBA records show that 9,034 small business firms were certified as SDBs as of August 24, 2000. According to SDB officials, 6,405 of these were automatically certified because of their 8(a) certification. The number of SDBs that have been certified by SBA is significantly lower than the 30,000 projected by SBA based on the number of firms that had self-certified as SDBs. Possible reasons for this discrepancy include (1) company reluctance to participate because of their uncertainty as to when or how the program would be implemented, (2) the perception by businesses that the application process is burdensome, and (3) the belief by some companies that the benefits do not justify the effort.

I'm the opposite of a hoarder. . . :)
Some people call me 'The Eliminator.' I'm better than I used to be, but I tend to dislike clutter and tend to want to throw stuff out. I have a messier husband and two young sons, so I can't get rid of everything. But I find it fun to think of new ways to organize. Today I got a big bag of plastic clothespins. I tied them to lengths of twine. I made a birthday, etc. card holder, and a thingy to hold gloves. Before I kept the gloves in a bin, and then I would have to sift thru to find the mate. It's starting to be cold in the mornings, so my boys like to wear those stretchy gloves to school. When they come home now, I tell them to clip their gloves to the clothespins. This should also work well for drying out wet gloves. I made another whole line for my own gardening gloves. Where I hung the strings of clips was right on this coat rack I made, which is lower to the ground so my kids can reach their coats and hang them back up easily. ~~Katy
Here is a link that might be useful:
My sister is the opposite of a hoarder. She throws everything out. She always throws out leftover food so her refrigerator always stays neat. I went to her house one afternoon and asked to see the morning newspaper, there was an article I wanted to show her. She said "Oh, that paper is already in the recycling box in the garage." Know what I mean?
Yep, my 'fridge is the same way. Before I run the dishwasher, I always look in the 'fridge to see what leftovers I can call "done" and then feed the scraps to the chickens and then put the dish/container into the dishwasher. Once my husband said, "How come you recycle the newspaper so fast?" Hehe. I finally had to tell myself, "Stay out of the kids rooms!" because I was wanting to sort their rooms and throw out toys I didn't think were used much. Now I have an 11 year old and he notices! We have a three car garage with a loft, and it's ALL my husband's stuff. It's okay with me because I can put anything of his out there so I don't have to see it in the house. :) I've often thought that an eliminator and a pack-rat are just different ways of expressing the same insecurites. Both are trying not to feel "want."
Those are cool. They remind me of the metal clipstrips for potato chips in the deli.
I wanted to find those and use them for Beanie Babies.
Or, take the clothespins and glue them to the side panel of the bookcase.
(This link has PEGBOARD strips; usually the strips have a loop at the top designed to stick into holes on the shelves in stores, but not easy to hang up on the wall at home. The PEGBOARD ones would be really, really cool. Though, sold in packs of 50, though, only $25, and maybe wholesale only)
Here is a link that might be useful: clipstrips
Yes, they are rather like the chip clip displays at stores. Iiiiinteresting! I'll keep my eye out at old store displays. . .
i'm so glad you got the pictures on as i was "seeing" them horizontal ranter than vertical and vertical makes so much sense..takes up less room..
did you have to drill holes in the clothespins or did they come with holes.
i think i might do something like that for our work gloves int he shed..right now they take up a lot of room piled in a box..and you have to look through them to find the pair you want..a string on the pegboard wouldn't take up too much room..and would keep them handy and dry
I am beginning to think I am a hoarder because I am the opposite of friends and family members who won't keep anything unneeded in their homes. They have absolutely no problem with letting go and obviously no attachment to stuff.
I will confess to something I did a few years ago. Thinking about it makes me think I do have a problem. I had loads of magazines that I went through, page by page, and tore out all those interesting articles I had saved these magazines for. I now have a complete drawer in my filing cabinet of all these clippings, organized by subject in their own file folders. Since this project, I've only once taken out 2 of these folders and that was to cull the articles in them.
I know I can find any of this information in books or on the internet but this has all of my interests or wish list stuff, etc.
I am determined in the next short while to go through several boxes of kitchen stuff that's in boxes in the laundry room because I don't have room for them in my kitchen. Do I need any of those plastic containers, etc? Probably not. I've even thought of taking everything in good condition that I don't use to a friend who doesn't think twice about throwing stuff out. But she does cook and freeze a lot so I'll leave it up to her to get rid of it for me.
I used to think hoarding meant those homes with newspapers all over the floor, etc. but now it seems there are different levels to this. As I said, I'm beginning to realize I have a problem.
I guess I'm neither. I have several boxes of sentimental things, but I keep them contained. I go through the kids' stuff every 6 months to a year, but if it's good, I keep it for the next kid. If it's not or if I didn't like it (due to excessive bulk-for-play value or whatever), it gets donated.
I kept any of my grandparents' books that I thought I might like. I'm slowly reading through them and either selling or keeping them, depending on my reaction to them. That sort of thing.
Hey, City Chicken, I'm really glad to hear you say that an "eliminator" is not necessarily a healthier state of mind than a hoarder. I have some friends who are eliminators, and I think you're right. They have a pathological need for their own homes to be clear, but they are not happier people, nor do they make the people around them happy.
They sort of send out the message that there is no room in their perfect lives for imperfect people. One of them even had the nerve to ask me to keep empty bread bags for her (she needs them for scooping after her dog). As if I need her clutter on top of my own, while enabling her own pathology.
Someone who posted on the other thread that she couldn't give up enough space for a piece of paper to share something useful with her sister, and that's sort of what I mean: making things look good rather than making other people feel good.
I'm sure there's a balance. I'm not saying I've found it, since my problem is that I'd apparently rather have my stuff than room for people in my house. But if eliminators didn't always act as though they are some sort of superior species, I think we'd be more likely to find it.
karinl, I'm definitely not a neat "freak." (Freak being the operative word.) I think an "eliminator" is different than someone who wants everything "perfect." (You should see my floors and windows!) My house is always about making people and my family comfortable. I never make people take their shoes off before they come in, my carpet is dark brown to hide stains, and my walls are brownish so as not to show kid's effluvia, but also so I don't have to scrub them! :) Yet there is just something about keeping stuff I don't use. But the problem is when I get rid of things too soon, and then wish I had it. It's like I get "fits" of eliminating. Declutter mania? :)
>Someone who posted on the other thread that she couldn't give up enough space for a piece of paper to share something useful with her sister, and that's sort of what I mean: making things look good rather than making other people feel good.
You've never know a compulsive clipper, have you?
I am somewhat of an eliminator also. I don't seem to get attached to my stuff and if and when I don't need it any more I will pass it on with no problem but for some weird reason I get attached to Christmas decorations and have to go through a few times to get rid of some that I don't use. Don't know why because it really doesn't make sense.
I do have some sentimental things that I keep but not to much.

another qotday/
What was the hardest thing for you to learn when you first started to quilt besides putting on the binding. I always had to have my husband get his square out to make sure eveything was straight etc.
I had a HORRIBLE time trying to cut a strip of fabric that didn't have a "chevron" in the middle where the fold was. I would carefully line up the selvages, square up the fabric, and cut. Then I would unfold my strip and over and over again it had a bend in the middle. I finally got help from a more experienced quilter that told me that the selvages didn't have to be perfectly aligned. This made all the difference.
Free motion quilting. I had another quilter say you had to do it every day to get used to it and that each time you would need a 30 minute warm-up before you seriously started FMQ - It took me probably 3 years to even try it since it sounded so intimidating. My stitching is not beautiful but it is so much easier to move a quilt through the machine being able to go forward, backward, left or right verses stitch in the ditch and turning the whole quilt at every corner!
I feel that I am still learning but I guess the most difficult part was making the sandwich and putting it together. In the early days I had to baste with needle and thread and not much room to do it. I still can FMQ very well so that is still on the lower end of the learning curve.
Like nanajayne, it is putting the sandwich together so all is smooth and wrinkle free, I just don't have the room either. Haven't mastered it yet.
AND, I think one of the hardest things for me was to stop buying every gadget, doo-hickey, and "this will solve all your sewing/quilting problems" items that came along. I mean really, why did I think those tiny suction cup thingys would ever hold a ruler while looped over my finger. Puhlease! What a sucker I was. But on the other hand, some of those things did work out for me, like my purple gloves. Love those.
To me, quilting is like life, you just keep on learning until you die.
I guess the thing I still don't do very well is press. That's why I am a fanatic about pinning because my pressing leaves a lot to be desired. another thing I have trouble with is getting my binding to make a nice square corner. Sometimes they are beautiful and sometimes they're not.
I agree with most of the above. Sandwiching, FMQ and finishing it up. It took courage to jump into those. I didn't know you could "send a quilt out" when I started and I thought I just had to quilt it. I never considered doing it by hand and my early machine quilting is terrible. I want to rip it out and do it over. But, I've learned lots since then. I also avoid every new gadget I see. I seldom use a specialty ruler more than the one try. We live and learn don't we. I never stop learning.
After over 40 years of quilting, I frequently feel like each new quilt is my first. That's because I tend to be a little loosey-goosey with many quilting guidelines. Like matching seams exactly, like pressing to the same side, like precision cutting. And that pesky math! Measuring for borders in the middle and ends, squaring blocks before adding sashing. I think that's why my brain seizes at the thought of paper-piecing.
I try and make a conscious effort to follow the guidelines, knowing the end result will be nicer. But there are many detours of my conviction during the process. The end results are some mismatched corners, easing of border seams, cut-off points and other assorted departures from perfection.
I don't get nuts about the imperfections. I keep improving with each quilt; I'll get there. Or I won't. Either way, I'll keep happily sewing.
Yeah!........dian57. I have always loved to sew and still do..........until I get overly fussy about minor things. I no longer have the patience for such things. I still strive for perfection, but realize that I will never get there and accept that. Keep enjoying and quilting,...Sew long
Since I have only been quilting for a short time - just 2 years- I still have vivid memories of everything being hard ~LOL~ -but thanks to the good people at this forum, I learned so much so fast. I really had difficulty reading a ruler - esp cutting the angles. I admit I am a perfection...so letting go of some very rigid rules of construction/sewing is (still is) probably the hardest lesson for me to learn. I love to sew....but I look too closely at my work.
OK, please don't judge me too harshly, LOL.
I sewed for a living - I smacked, pulled, and tugged trapazoidal needlepoint canvasses into square with lots of steam and a blocking board with nails. I made sure they stayed straight and square with my welt cord, and by lining my silk and velvet backing fabrics with stable muslin, and sometimes stuffing more in some corners than others. It was my livelihood. Odd shapes were not acceptable.
So during piecing, those corners and points had better match up. I am unable to accept less from myself, LOL.
It's why I don't do longarm quilting for others. I could, and I do for 2 friends, but other than them, I no longer expose myself to the stress of knowing "if they just had a seam guide, they'd be so much better" or "don't they know to fit the border to the quilt" or whatever comment would be trying to burst out of my mouth.
So I'm a cut accurately, piece carefully, press well, kind of woman. I can't help it.
