    Yes, I locked up, too - but did the old Ctl+Alt+Del and it released it. Thank you for this link - I was thinking the other day if it would work to put a motif in sashing corners like that from the machine stitches, something decorative. This was a perfect illustration - thank you.

    Thanks for this link. I had not heard of this before, but really like this technique and glad to hear that others have used it and liked the results.

    Thanks for sharing this video. Great idea and I'm just finishing a lap robe and I'm going to give this a try.
    Families are like old quilts....although they tend to unravel at times...each can be stitched back together with love.

    I like this and it would still give the look of a hand-tied quilt . Thanks for sharing.
