Have to add my thanks to the group. Unlike most people who have an expertise in something (like bakers who won't share their family recipe) all of you share your knowledge. I've only been reading, but am gathering the confidence that I can piece a quilt. Have only done embroidery on a large piece of fabric and then one-pieced the back and tied them (my Aunt, aged 74, says: That is a comforter NOT a quilt)soooo, I've never made a quilt. But I will!!!!! :thumbup:
