Omak -- the Sue pot holder started out as a 9 inch square. I picked 9 because my store bought pot holders are 7 and seemed a bit skimpy.
Bettia -- I've sewn clothes for years but just started quilting a couple of months ago. Clothes are MUCH easier.
Billy -- I didn't post my actual first, first FMQ. This is my first publishable FMQ. I call the very first one "Spastic Drunk with Bloody Fingers". A foot of some type might be considered an OSHA safety device for me.
Miss Mollie Sue -- I think of Sue for everything. I just love the old gal and her grown up friends the Bonnet Girls.
Thanks for all the kind words!
