about the difference between sewing patterns and quilting patterns. I've never sewn before, but I've always wanted to learn. One of the responses told me there was a good book available in the classifieds. I bought it and have enjoyed reading it and applying it. It had been on my must buy list, so I was really happy to get it.

Another wonderful quilter pm'd me with interest in helping me make some of the projects I was looking at. She is absolutely wonderful and not only do I look forward to learning more from her, she's such a gem and I look forward to a great friendship too.

This is my first sewing project ever. I wanted to add some disclaimers for the copyrights. All the projects I've picked out are free patterns. I have no intention of ever making one to sell it. The first bunch (I have 3 patterns picked out) are all for my personal use and I'm enjoying learning things from them.

Ok, here are the pics. I made a little organizer that hangs below your machine.

I put on the pocket

The rest are all finished pictures. I variated from the pattern enough to add the pocket to a fat quarter sized quilt sandwich that I practiced FMQ on.
