Hello Sonya,
Your quilts look so fresh and vibrant, also your charity quilt blocks are lovely, - when do you expect to complete the quilt? Well Done!! Isn't it a fabulous addiction? I often wonder what I spent my time and money on before this delightful thing took me over, about 6 months ago :-) Lynn "hellofromsmd" wrote in message om... 'lo I've been lurking for awhile but felt like joining in the fun. Have really enjoyed all of the messages both on and OT. I started quilting last March and am already hopelessly addicted. I live in Michigan with my DH and two mutts (soon to be three when friend's assistance dog needs a retirement home). I wrestled with Webshots this evening and I think I've got my projects posted http://community.webshots.com/user/hellofromsmd Only two quilts to my name so far : ) Thanks for the fun, I look forward to hanging out with ya'. --Sonya |

Hey, this IS fun. Thanks for all of the kind words. And Carolyn,
thanks for the clarification on where to send surplus fabric and such, I was wondering about that ; ) Laurie, the backpack wasn't especially difficult. It was mainly just tedious. I didn't have a rotary cutter then and so I made templates for all of the pieces (out of the tops of margarine tubs) and cut them all with scissors. I didn't know about 1/4" feet or moving the needle then either so I made two sets of templates, one for the cutting lines and one for the sewing (traced the sewing line onto each piece). The pattern is from http://www.orangepeel.cc/patterns/op1.htm (NAYY). I changed things around a bit, mainly the block on the flap. |

Very nice quilts! I have a sister named Sonia - such a beautiful name. :-)
You're off to a great start. Unfortunately (or fortunately), you'll find this newsgroup as addicting as quilting so you'd better allocate your time accordingly. See you around, Gina in IL |

block, your paper piecing was worth the trouble. Roberta in D "hellofromsmd" wrote in message om... 'lo I've been lurking for awhile but felt like joining in the fun.
