Also, I love that Chocolate DJ in the gallery of DJ's on this Quilt Board. I've heard comments that Kona solids are a bit of a thicker fabric that the regular quilting fabric. Does anyone have an a suggestion for a good solid fabric I could use for the chocolate areas? I don't have experience with buying solid fabrics.
Thanks all! I am looking forward to being with you in the coming year!
I"m doing the larger blocks. I made a test block at 4.5" and it made me nuts and I quilt for the enjoyment not for the frustration. I did another block at 6.5" and I liked that one much better so I am going to do that.
