Good day, fellow quilters. How nice that we can meet in a venue like this. :D I am 68 years old and have been teaching quilting each week for the past 19 years at the local Senior Center. My other passion is computers (iMac). It is so good to meet you all here. Let's talk. :lol:

Hello
My name is Debbie and I love to sew and quilt my problem is I have too many UFO's (unfinished objects). I keep telling myself that I will only buy items to finish my UFO's but it never happens that way (ROFL). I live in Wisconsin and have one cat.

Hello Penny B: I got the idea for a simple pattern at about.com website. there is a pattern where you use 8.5x11.5 white paper and you ser on strips of fabrics. It is easy to complete and a great way for all your blocks to be the same size. I also use crazy quilts pattern. I don't use the paper foundation anymore, I use old sheets and muslin as the foundation.

Hi Penny, The traditional Log Cabin pattern is great for the 30's fabric and set each block together with a Star cornerstone. The first center piece could be the traditional Turkey Red solid material. It could also have the scrappy look with the 30's fabric. Good Luck! Ann in GA
