Hi Carol, I emailed you a while ago about your terrific jean quilts. I mentioned that I was having a hard time getting started because I wasn't happy with any of the patterns I saw. Once I saw your two quilts, I couldn't wait to get to my cutting board! Well, I'm sewing on the binding right now for my first one (I have four more to go!). If it wasn't for you, I NEVER would have tackled this! So, thank you again :thumbup: I followed your suggestion for "tying" instead of "quilting". I'm very happy with this idea. But now I have another question. How short (or long) did you cut the yarn? I left them about four inches because I wanted to check with you before I cut them. THANKS AGAIN, DEAR, YOU ARE MY ANGEL :-D
