Teresa Do you love the look of the fabric? Do you drool over quilt designs? Then the only way to make your quilt happen is to dive in! You need to take a deep breath decide on your design and lay out your fabric!! Then just enjoy the process!! After you get started you will enjoy making this Doll Quilt! Think positive!! Repeat after me--I will have fun using my new machine!! LOL Just think of your quilt all done and on it's way to your partner!! She will LOVE it no matter what because it is a piece of you she is receiving! We love them all and noone else can do what you do! I love the fact that each quilt I receive has been touched and loved by my partner!! It is a connection like no other between my and my partner. I just love it! Every time I look at my DQ collection I remember the conversations we had and I see the partner that sent me that DQ. It is fabulous to have them!! Your skill is not the major component in these quilts love is!!
