Pam now I am not stupid but I feel that way sometimes as I have some free patterns but they just seem like greek too me. Isn't there a certain way you have too lay your material before you start cutting it? what do I do if the material has been folded at the store and I can't get the edges too match? See I told you, I don't know how too get started. I rarely leave this house as there is too much work and my health is not that good so most of the time I stay right here except too go too the doctor. But I finally got too go too the Paducah show and I aim for my daughter too take me back too Paducah and go through all the little quilt shops before too long.
