Thanks everyone. I think I would like it much better if I did the work by hand. I just can't decide what method to use. I actually like sitting and doing work by hand much better than machine appliqueing. This quilt is just kind of a design as I go kind of thing but I am loving it. I will post a picture as soon as I get the top done and you can all critique for me. I have all the fabric and "stuff" ready to make a One Block Wonder quilt that I want to give my son for his birthday in December so I do have a lot of time to make that one. It will be in all shades of black and off white and every shade of grey imaginable. Then will have a few accents of bright purple or red. Can't wait to start it so I need to get this other one done.
Love reading this board and looking at the pictures of quilts. They are all so beautiful and I am learning a lot reading the board.
Thanks,
Bailey
