    Hi I am a newbie, and just wanted to say hi. I've done a little quilting, but now am venturing out there to do more. I have trouble with the small blocks so I tend to run to the bigger ones lol. I use 6.5x6.5 most of the time. I have carpel tunnel really bad, but manage to charge ahead. I am making alot of Christmas gifts right now, and am so excited. Working on a crossword puzzle quilt but am stumped as what to use for the letters in it. Any suggestions??? Thanks so much.

    Welcome to QB from the beautiful Ozark Mountains of north central Arkansas. When I need letters I create them on my computer in any word processing program (bold font face), print them out, turn them over and trace them on to fusible webbing, then fuse the letters to the fabric and applique them down. Good luck.
