    I had read something awhile ago... i thought it was on the boards here about quilting blocks separately and then sewing the quilting blocks together, I cant seem to find it anywhere...something that you could do with a smaller/cheaper sewing machine. Does anyone happen to know what I am talking about or where I can find it?

    Awesome!!! I have been working on my quilt sampler got a few more blocks done I will put up some pics tomorrow. It is coming along well! I was just trying to remember where I saw that and what it was called. I think I would like to try that next so I can do it on my small machine (and small quilting table) and see how it turns out! ya'll are so quick!! Thanks!

    I did a practice quilt sort of by the fun and done method and it worked pretty well for me. Probably exceptionally well considering I had no clue what I was doing!
