Linda, I don't know anything about a virtual thread. I'll have to think about this. I would like to do a tutorial when I have a little more knowledge. This topic has helped me to see the kinds of questions people have and what I have left out of the descriptions...great lead-up to a tutorial. I will be presenting at our guild's quilt show in September. I need to make a PDF and post here or in a tutorial on this site, so I can send people here instead of making handouts. Could people post their comments and pictures of their projects on the tutorial link? As you can see, I just joined this board in March and am not totally "in the know" about these things.
