a quick question...I hope someone has already figured this out for me. LOL. I have not got my book yet, can someone tell me what the 13 colors are in DJ quilt...the Around the World diamond shaped rows. I can see, from the center, the rows go like this....green, yellow is next,____, ____, pink, purple (maybe), red, and can't even guess on the rest. Anybody know the actual colors? Helllllllpppp!

Help, I thought I understood how to do the paperpiecing as I printed off all the tutes and studied them and then I started yesterday and am lost. I don't have software because I have a Mac but Klue send me the patterns. I cut out paper patterns for each piece and then the strip section, I can't seem to figure out how to go about it. Do you glue the thin paper to each small piece, leave it and sew all the pieces to the strip sections. I've made a mess. Will try again today but would appreciate a real SIMPLE first and second step. Thanks~Grandma doesn't get it!

I'll try to find the tute and get you a link. Set it up right next to where you sew so that you can watch it at the same time. |

I have done hers but it is onto one big piece and I got it but when I go to the divided sections I get lost and everything turns wrong way, etc. Will try again today. Thanks

Don't get frustrated...well, too late for that. What I mean is, don't give up. Once it clicks, it's easy as pie. So...other thoughts...there are DVD's out there, and I know that my LQS has a class that teaches the technique every once in a while.
Also, in the interim, have you looked at Rhonda's tutes for the cut-down method? |
