There was a video posted on her months ago. It showed men doing it and sewing very fast. Just watch out for your finger placement.

Wow, stained glass, Florida oranges and lighthouses to boot. What fantastic quilts everyone. I haven't even gotten to the last page of trying to catch with y'all! I think I am going to be able to join in the fun for February. Can't wait.

I decided to draw a little old-timey trailer and use 30's prints--these small RV's are in demand with vintage lovers and go for good prices if you have one! Looks like we could have a kick-back,ice tea and hamburger day, doesn't it?
Darling travel trailer quilt, Jillnjo. It would be so cool to see the details up close and real. What a cute idea. Just watched Extreme RVs last night on the tellie...

IslandwizI- I got your great quilt today 
It is gorgeous- thank you so-o-o- much.
Yours will be out tomorrow. The post office was closed by the time hubby got there- although 4 o'clock seems early to me

Hooray hooray, Scrap4evr has received the quilt I made for her. It represents the town I grew up in, but I haven't told her the name of the town yet, and she's still working on the riddle! I have started a separate thread called Doll Quilt Quiz so you can all join in the fun...
