Changing your password reminder
Sunday 7th March 2010
Val: If you have forgotten your password, you can ask the computer software to issue you with another one and in return you will get a series of letters and numbers, which are impossible to remember!! However, once you have logged in you can find a 'Change my Password' option at the top righthand side of your screen under the Members tab; so you can then type in something you can remember and is also easy to type! Another option is to ask us, and we'll get back to you.
More films
Friday 5th March 2010
Val: Under the new idea of new films each week, ready for the weekend you can see Jennie Rayment demonstrating how to work tucks and texture; simple, honeycomb, add colour to the edges and much more. Also a great interview with Mandy Shaw - did you know that she and Jennie had history?!?
Stuttering films
Friday 26th February 2010
Val: If you are new to the site we hope you are enjoying it. Should you find that the films aren't running smoothly, the data file to download onto your machine is quite large, so here is a little trick: once you have pushed the play arrow in the centre of the filmscreen, you will see a pause option appear in the bottom section (it looks like this II); if you pause the film, it will continue to load in the background - you can see this as a different colour line appearing and growing...
Change of plan!
Thursday 25th February 2010
From now on you will have new films every week! They will go up onto the site on a Friday, so all ready for you to view over the weekend. Join Karin Hellaby, who we filmed at the Festival of Quilts, showing us how to make a variety of easy attic window blocks from her latest book, Sew Easy Attic Windows;.

News Update
Monday 15th February 2010
JUSTHANDS-ON.TV NEWS UPDATE For those of us who are no longer teenagers, it may be that Feb 14th isn't a key date on the calendar, but I rather like the North American habit of remembering your friends on this day too - so a very happy day to all our quilting friends. Don’t forget that the films will start to be renewed on Feb 23rd and that is also the date that the renewal offer of 4 months for the price of 3 will run out – so if you’ve not logged on recently, might be worth...

Where is Valerie?
Saturday 30th January 2010
Jennie: My mate Valerie has vanished to Ardingly to the quilt show - if you haven't been then do go along - it is on for two more days. Great place to indulge in a little retail therapy. I am left holding the baby and looking after the web site and planning our next lots of filming. Great stuff coming up and we are going to endeavour to be really wacky and way out with some of our videos but of course for the more sober ones - we will maintain an aspect of decorum ..... well we might! Happy...
