Sounds like a great time for a breather ... and a beer!!

Thanks for the offer, but I will pass on the beer; never acquired a taste for it or coffee. Tea, I love Ice Tea or in the winter hot tea of a morning. Enjoy a Cherry Coke Cola, but lately, have left it alone. Looking at the pyramid and trying to balance meals..and eat them at the same time every day... without snacking too much. The break did help, more successful now.

Hello I've just found this thread and would love to join in. I tried PP in the New York Beauty BOM and couldn't get it to work for me. I've done a bit more sewing and quilting since then (nearly a year) so I'll give it another go. May not be as fast as you all but that's OK. These blocks are so pretty. I've printed out some patterns and will look in my stash tonight to see what I can use.

Thank you for the warm welcome. I'm on the Central Coast of NSW Mirabelle near Gosford. Nice to met another Aussie on the board.

Hi Quiltaddiction....welcome aboard. Did you know there is a beautiful fabric line called Mirabelle? I have a top that has most of the piecing done but doing I'm doing it QAYG and it's been too hot here to do much quilting....and piecing is what I like to do best. Our Mirabelle...Karen....gives us great cutting directions which makes the PPing much easier for me.

I give up....I went back to entry 475 and still couldn't find the cutting instructions for blocks one and two to point the newbies in that direction so I came up with an idea for you, Mirabelle. You could start a blog on this site where only the cutting instructions are posted and everyone could find it easily. I checked and and it looks like it would be easy to do. We are so chatty that we add pages everyday!
