    I have been studying the FMQ very closely since I will be getting a grace quilt frame. I found this site from another member about the 365 days of FMQ. She has a lot of beginner information that will really help all of us who are afraid to just quilt our tops. She has many videos and I would recommend checking it out! Have fun Jade

    I also have a bunch of video's on how to do corners and borders on my site. I put them there so I can reference them when I do mine. I have only made two so far and the videos were a life saver. I also after sewing one...found out after I sewed my quilt that I should have sewed from the inside out...and not the sew the edges first....oh well...still looks good and my husband and kitties love it. my blog is thriftyideas.com...no ads on it...I just do it for fun.
