Sometimes I feel like a beginner. There are so many things that I am not that good at. But when I give a quilt away, I have never had any complaints. I have never tried paper piecing, and only have done two small lap quilts in the style of quilt as you go, but there are a lot of other things I have learned over the years, from this group, and by trial and error. This is a terrific place to ask a question because so many people are very willing to help you with any part of the quilting world.
