I'm waiting on my book to see what is involved and what I will need. Glad I have till June to pull it all together.
Same here!
BTW, is everyone doing embroidery on this quilt?

You are NOT in over your head. Just take things slowly, one piece at a time. Some of us are just finishing up another group sew for a Dear Jane of our own. Most have learned tons about quilting & about themselves. This is a really fun way to expand on what you do know and to learn things you don't know by trying them out. We are all here for support.

The reason I was asking is because Ive not done any embroidery, and wondered how the blocks would look without. Hmm...it may be a good use for some of the decorative stitches, hey, this is already getting the juices flowing, lol. I can't wait to get the book, although this project has to wait for now, but surely I can start fantasizing....thanks for hosting this and nudging me into trying something like this.

Kathy, I must ask is your avatar a quilt from the Bella Bella quilts book? It is gorgeous, I love it.I have the book, got it a couple of months ago and practicing in other quilts to make one or two from that book.
Sorry to be off topic, had to ask, lol.
Yes, I I'll have to think about what all is involved and what needs to be done when I got the book. Thanks for the help.

The quilt is the Costa Rican Cartwheel from "Mariner's Comapss Quilts: Setting a New Course" by Judy Mathieson. It is paper pieced and around 50 some inches square.
Don't worry about getting off course with this group. These ladies (me, too) will talk about anything even if it is off topic. Don't mind in the least.
