Hi, Everyone.

This is Gloria from sewaquilt.com. I think Norah has a wonderfu idea. It's good timing, too, because I've been planning to add a "Student Quilts" page on my site. This gives me the fire under my feet to get it started.

There is one other thing I'd like to mention. I'm all for saving money on fabric, but you have to be careful what you buy. Walmart doesn't have the best reputation for quality fabrics.

If you want your quilts to last, especially if you plan to hand them down to future generations, you want to use quality fabrics. I wrote two articles regarding this subject. One article explains how fabric is processed at the fabric mills and why some stores sell quality fabrics and others don't. The other article teaches you how to tell the difference between quality fabrics and cheap fabrics.

Anyway, if everyone decides to make the quilt sampler, I'll be available for questions, and I'll post your photos when you're finished. Sound good? Let me know , Ladies.
