frustratedquilter...I too think some of the blocks look difficult, that is why I want to make them...to learn new techniques. Since I have the CD (you have to buy it separately) I will do as many block using PPing as I can. FOr the applique ones I plan to do a "raw edge".
OK--I am waiting until 2014 so that I have a few more projects finished before starting a couple new ones. I really want to get this airplane quilt checked off my list so I can move on to other things!! Now just to find the time to do it...maybe I will sneak in 30min after DH leaves for work and before waking kids up for school tomorrow...hmmmmm??? (For those who don't know, I homeschool our kids.)
