Hi....I came to this board as a newbie...ish quilter and have learnt so much.... why not join us in the monthly doll quilt swop...you'll find it under the main section....round robins/swop....I love it and I get a chance to try my hand at lots of new patterns without having to buy all the fabric for a big quilt. I spend about a day doing my quilt for my partner and have tried so many new techniques...FMQ, pinwheel, D9P, applique....by doing something small you find out either you like it or not and then you can happily go on and do it as a bigger size. It is also really great receiving other peoples quilts...great inspiration.
