This fabric is beautiful! I got this for my Dad to do a pillow but it is too nice for that. I am going to do a quilted wall hanging instead.

It has a silky feel and the colors are awesome. I just wish I could find this for the Navy.

Very very nice quilt block and definitely worth the money!

Jesse James Beads 5923 Design Elements Gingersnap, Bronze

Customer Ratings:

The colors are just beautiful. I have not started a project with them yet, but I

will go back for more Jesse James beads. Liked the mix of colors.

As with any project I have to keep in mind the costs and value of what I

get. This met both criteria.

Panasonic Genius 1250 Watt Sensor Microwave w/Inverter Technology

List Price: $179.99

Today's Bonus: 10% Off

After having my first microwave for about 18 years, it finally died and I did a lot of research before deciding to buy this Panasonic. Having Amazon gift certificates, free shipping and a $25 kitchen and housewares discount influenced my decision and I have to say it was a great buy. I'm very pleased with the evenness with which it cooks and defrosts.

I upgraded from a mid-size 650-watt oven to this full-size 1250-watt oven. I have to remind myself sometimes that everything needs less time to cook. However, there are a lot of pre-programmed features in this unit that make it easier. For example, there is a sensor cook button that selects the time and power level for different kinds of foods depending on how many times you tap the button. Types of food include baked potatoes, frozen pizza, frozen entrees, fresh vegetables, frozen vegetables and omelettes. I made a baked potato last night that was cooked perfectly. There is also a separate popcorn button (you can select from 3 different bag sizes) that also worked perfectly. A More/Less button lets you add or subtract time to the sensor and popcorn settings.

There are a number of different functions you can select or turn on and off. Some of the functions include language (English, French or Spanish), a choice of pounds or kilos, child lock, reminder beep (I turned that off because unlike my old oven which beeped every minute, this one beeps every 15 seconds which was annoying) and menu action which when turned on guides you through each step of cooking. There is also a demo mode which is meant for retail displays but you can see how everything works without actually cooking anything.

Some other useful features are delayed start where you can use the timer to set the oven to start cooking at a later time and a keep warm setting if you won't be taking your food out of the oven immediately. A Quick Min button lets you select 1-9 minutes simply by tapping the button the appropriate number of times.

If you purchase this, I would suggest going through the owner's manual a couple of times. I went through it once before I used the oven. A couple of days later I went through it again and discovered that I had overlooked some shortcuts.

The only down side for me with this oven is losing some more counter space in a small kitchen. Keep that in mind if you don't already have a full-size oven.

UPDATE: It is now 2010 and I realized I have been using this oven for 3 1/2 years and I still love it! I do a lot of actual cooking in it too, not just reheating, popcorn, etc.

Side Cutter II Sewing Machine Foot Attachment

Customer Ratings:

This is a wonderful product for LIGHTWEIGHT sewing! I happen to use it on very sheer nylon for grooming smocks, so it converts my straight shanked Brother and Singer machines into sergers very easily. I know Singer has a heavier duty side cutter and plan to purchase it for future heavy weight sewing, but for now, this is the product that I will be using. You will need to read the instructions in order to get it to work the first time as I just expected it to go to work automatically. NOT! It's wonderful for the price for lightweight materials and I would recommend it for the hobby to advanced sewer who does not want to purchase a serger right away.

Today's Bonus: 21% Off

This necklace looks great in the package but once you try to use them, you realize how little color there is in each bead.

My 4 year old quickly lost interest in the necklace because the colors were faded and pale.

I expected more. There was lots of white beads which were useless on paper.

HP Universal Matte Canvas (36 Inches x 50 Feet Roll)

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $227.85
Sale Price: $184.85
Today's Bonus: 19% Off

im printing on an epson stylus pro 9500 using durafirm inks. this canvas -HASto be clear coated or else the ink will easily crack and scratch off. it takes the ink just fine. sometimes at the end of the roll, there will be a little horizontal line, or seem, or crease, or wrinkled indentation from the lip at the very end creating a bump in the roll.

the digital ground is super even, which a blacklight will show. Its not very thick, and you can tear it with your hand if you try really really hard. When I stretch it on stretcher bars, which I've done alot with this item, you have to be careful or else you will tear it and ruin your giclee. your stretcher bars will need rounded edges or else it will crease the corner too much and create a split in the ink. its not the smoothest canvas in terms of the stitching, if you look close you can see texture of canvas, this has its pro's and cons.

this canvas, on wooden stretcher bars, clear coated, makes a wonderful product that just feels good to hold.

Singer Sewing Machine Shank Only Snap On

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $4.74
Sale Price: $3.95
Today's Bonus: 17% Off

This crunched up looking shank is for Low Shank machines to attach snap on feet with the smaller width snap bar (about as wide as a #2 pencil lead before sharpening). This should work well with a Singer Featherweight sewing machine, which is low shank and the narrow type snap on feet.

If your attachment foot has the wider space, you need the other shank attachment:

Silicone Mold Making Putty. Fast Setting Silicone RTV Rubber

Customer Ratings:

I bought this product in hopes to learn how to make molds and it was EXCELLENT for that. If you are just beginning and want to use a product that is easy, this is a good one for that.

BUT this product does not seem to have a very long shelf life. At first it set in less than a half an hour. As it got older it took longer and longer to set, and now it has only been 4 months since i purchased the putty and it takes about 24 hours to completely set. IF you plan on using it immediately after buying then it is a WONDERFUL product and i would recommend it to anyone. But if you intend on keeping it for later use, you should probably pick something else with a longer shelf life...

Vintaj 1-Piece Clock Face Decorative Pendant, 25.5mm

Customer Ratings:

I love the Vintaj product line. They have such a variety of beautiful metal components -natural brass, copper, pewter, and black art deco.

This 1" clock face is from their natural brass line and it has a vintage look to it with its raised relief roman numerals and rich caramel brown color. Unlike Vintaj's filigree brass pieces, this particular piece is more rigid and can't be easily twisted and manipulated around other pieces. You can, however, use a dapping block to very gradually work it into a slightly convex or concave shape. The Vintaj product line also carries a dapping block, but it's made of wood which I don't find as effective as the heavier metal ones.

There are less expensive options for metal clock faces with a vintage look. These Tim Holtz Metal Timepieces sell for less and include 5 various size clock faces (1.25," 1.50," and 1.75").

The natural metal surface on all of the Vintaj pieces can be enhanced by using metal patinas and then buffing the raised (relief) areas with the metal relief block for added luster.

For wonderful inspiration for fun and creative jewelry, it's worth a visit to their website to see their gorgeous photos of finished pieces...each using many various pieces of the Vintaj line. Amazon doesn't allow other websites to be posted, but it's easy to find by googling "Vintaj." There are also a number of YouTube videos on different techniques.

Janome Sewist 500 Sewing Machine with 25 Built-In Stitches

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $349.00
Sale Price: $299.00
Today's Bonus: 14% Off

First off, I'm an amateur when it comes to sewing. I've been sewing for about 6 years and it has been pretty much just basic alterations and maintenance of my military uniforms. The Janome Sewist 500 is my third sewing machine. So far I am impressed.

PROS:

-My first project was sewing through two layers of leather straps on my pistol holster. We're talking 3/16" thickness and leather!! The Sewist 500 pounded through it with ease. My previous Brother and Singer could not have done this.

-The Sewist 500 is very user friendly. Again, I am an amateur when it comes to sewing. There is nothing difficult about using this machine. I was able to jump right on it and start sewing.

-The adjustable foot presser is very handy. It held my leather firmly in place without any problems.

-Honestly, this machine has more features then I am use to. I don't even know how to use them all and probably will never need to. This is a plus for the more experienced user, I'm sure.

-The included hard case/cover is an added bonus. Not only does it add an element of protection to my machine, but it also hides it when my fellow military buddies come over.

-In terms of portability, the Sewist 500 is pretty light and portable. It's a little larger than my previous two machines and takes up a little more room on my desk, but that is fine considering the added performance.

CONS:

-I actually wanted the Janome Thread Banger TB12 but it was sold out everywhere I looked. Unlike the TB12's aluminum body, the Sewist 500 is all plastic. I am stationed in Iraq currently and I travel extensively. I would've liked a machine that is built like a tank.

-Finally, not all people who sew are women. And regardless, not all women like pastel colors. It would've been nice to have better (man) color or graphic options for my sewing machine (like the TB12). I'm a 35yo man in the military serving a combat assignment in Iraq. Pastel colors on my sewing machine is not condusive to my nature. Miniscule complaint, yes. But I believe in equal opportunity and options.

Aside from the tedious CONS, the Sewist 500 is a great machine for the price ($249.00 @ Mr. Sew & Mrs. Vac).

Smokehouse Pet Products DSM84194 Braided Pizzle Dog Treat Stick

Customer Ratings:

What a joke this order was!! Very misleading, ad said the price was originally over$400.00. The price $10.58, too good to be true! Never said you'd only get one pizzle. Plus a picture of a whole box of these things. I didn't think I'd get a whole box, but at least 2 or 3? So here comes the package with 1 pizzle! I could have gone to a pet store & bought the same thing for alot less than the $17.30 this cost me!!
