I don't care what's trendy, I just care that I love it!

So, as said, a good source is right here on the Threads!!

It appears Judy Neimeyer designs are all the rage. But they are complicated. I prefer Lisa Moore and ToadUSew quilt patterns because, even though they look somewhat complicated, their methods make them easy. As far as fabric designs. There's so much out there - it's a personal choice.

Tools, tools, tools, I love to find tools which provide either shortcuts or accuracy in doing the cutting and piecing of quilts! My latest find is the Lazy girl designs flying geese ruler, I appreciate the no math and no waste technique used with this ruler!

No, not at all.
Hello, A question. I have seen pillow cases made using a tube. Is a tube quilt made basically the same way?
Thanks,
Diane
