So happy for you to come out with your first post! I've gotten more than one idea/project from Eleanor over the years. I'm waving from Seattle -- if we both got on I-90 and headed for the opposite coast we would meet somewhere in the middle. I should check where that is, just in case!

I'm a dedicated piecer and meh quilter. I really admire all of you who do hand work.
The next big step after posting is pictures -- if you lurk you know we love pictures. I've been on the internet a long time but posting pictures for potential criticism was hard for me at first. Nowadays though, I honestly get more out of showing the problems I encounter and how I manage to get out of them.
