Now putting me in ice-skates would land me in hospital and that is without jumps. lol
I think I get the hang of it messing around on scraps....then I stick a quilt under the needle and all kinds of disaster happens...reading Martina's post is giving me another glimmer of hope.....I can't even iceskate, yet alone think of jumping whilst on skates.
