I've been working on so many other projects, my AOTH unfortunately is on hiatus... I did finally catch up on DJ which I should since I started the thread!! have a knee in dire need of surgery and the pain has been putting a damper on evrything
what I did want to mention since I see there are a few newbies and jillmc was asking about transferring pattern. I am doing my AOTH on a dark purple background [as you can see in my avatar - favorite AOTH block of mine] My friend, Marilyn - who co-owns our LQS with her husband and was one of the featured stores in the QUILT SAMPLER shop special issue [her quilt is on the cover!!]... at any rate as I try to complete this very runon sentence... one of Marilyn's valuable hints was to use a plastic project box and place a tap light inside. It makes a wonderful inexpensive lightbox!
