Rhonda, you said it perfectly!
Dee, the very first thing I learned about this board is that there are NO quilt police here! And there are quilters with all stages of expertise from beginners to blue-ribbon professionals. We ALL appreciate the work of one another!! Everyone is a beginner sometime, and it is from the mentoring and example of others that we learn. You won't find a more loving group than the people here. :P :P :P
