Id be happy to help any newbies. I dont do traditional quilting, Im too impatient and love to try new ways of manipulating fabric. I have a heat gun and have done some fun stuff with manmade fabrics by heating them so they curl or bubble. Also, I like to shread fabrics for Art Quilts , pillows, wall hangings, etc.
If I make a quilt block, I usually use the paper piec
ing method. In the past , I havent had good luck with piecing small blocks together. They never come out straight or the correct size.
I dont like to spend too much time on a project. There is always a long list of things I want to try and since Im 70, haha, Id better get a move on.
Im not a perfectionest but am more interested in the end result
