How do u only quote part of a quote or quote and reply to multiple quotes?

Instead of clicking the Quote button, click the " button next to it each time and then when you get to the last thing you want to quote click the QUOTE button, that will bring everything up into the reply box.

To only quote part of a quote just delete what you don't want once it's in the reply box - just make sure you keep the Quote & /Quote tags at either end Hope that all makes sense.

Beautiful quilts and bag Rufusdog.

Hi everyone

Laura, CONGRATS on the engagement! :smileyhea

Rufusdog, the quilts and bag are GORGEOUS!! You must be so patient!!

quiksave....love the easter treats!!


I need some advice

I want to make an "old person's" funny hamper for MIL for Christmas and don't know what to put in it. I've seen one somewhere before but I can't find it

I've got 50th anniversary Fairy as she will be 50 this year, a little bag of marbles, a jar of baby food, a tag with her name and address on it, some Tena Lady but I can't think of anything else

Any help would be gratefully appreciated!

Some purple rinse for her hair? Some Werthers originals (though I love those too and am only 33 ) Some Tubigrip and pop sox?

Oh, oh and one of those fold away rain hat things.

Haha!! Fabulous....thanks whoopidoo!

I'm loving the 'old lady' suggestions - i'll have to keep them in mind.

I hope you don't mind me joining in this thread. I don't really make much but some cards and cross stitching, but I hope to be more 'crafty' to make some stuff for christmas.

I have bookmarked so much stuff that I want to make today - that I don't know where to begin! :rotfl:

Nunnygirl.....some polyfix.....magnifying glass.....oh what about the joke wind up false teeth?

Sorry there isnt more....but the others have basically covered them!!

what about making a sign for the car........old driver on board in the style of the baby on board!!

I'm not sure if these have been posted here yet. Sethsgran posted these on the sewing thread (no pun intended) and I thought you all would love them too.

Reindeer gift pouches

nunnygirl

mumoffour77, she's already got false teeth, so I think the polygrip might come in useful

Queenbee - like the idea of sock puppets........spider and a fly would be good..........just have to work out how to do them....................lol:j

rufus - the quilts and bag are amazing........well do :T

susan - chocolate tub would be good...........thanks:j

love the 'old lady' ideas..............lol Being an oldie I ought to know a few
I've got a key ring with my name on (in case I forget who I am ??)
One of those string shopping bags that tucks in your handbag
Cord to hang round your neck to keep specs on
Anti wrinkle cream (check Freebie board for samples)

I'm sure there's loads more but can't think of any at the moment.

Not done much today except finish off scrapbook with ribbons...............bit 'random' but mainly cream, coffee colour and a sort of peach............tones in with the paper on the cover.............even OH thinks it good !

Oops..........nearly forgot..............OH playing Terry Wogans 'Janet and John' CD and its making me laugh................lol

Laura - what a birthday !! Congratulations !!
