Agreed! The very first quilt I completed was with SunBonnet Sleuth and I gained a lot of confidence from the doing. I also had a goal set for me and managed to complete it. I think it took me about five years to actually quilt it and that started my quilting "career" ... much more demanding than a block of the month, but it really does help one get off the dime.
Also, for those not able to meet with us, the pages will be posted for a month so you can print them out and catch up at your leisure.
Cute Buns did a mystery quilt and I have used that at least TWICE ... and, then someone on this board told about a mystery quilt from Planet Patchwork during the summer, and I made THREE quilts from that mystery.
I am checking to see if Quiltville.com is going to do a mystery also, but haven't done so yet:oops:
