i havent been online for awhile so much has been going on although i have found time to do some quilting
i have a sugestion that workes well for me i got tired of marking pens running out of ink half way through a project i have a bunch of old patterns a friend gave to me since most of them are out dated i started useing them to mark out my quilting patterns.
i then pin them to the project to be quilted .
i have found that the patterns are much easyer to fallow then useing a marker on the fabrick .
i have also found that some of the blue from the washable markers does not always come out this cured the problem of that.
i have also used the tissue papper for papper piecing projects it tears awys much easyer than othere papers.
i have since than found old patterns at garage sales and fleamarkets for about 10 cents apiece
happy quilting everone
and god bless you all
