Hello, my name is Renee and I'm a fabriholic! I just stumbled upon this board and I'm so glad I did. I am a beginner sewer/quilter and I'm loving every minute of it! I've been reading magazines and blogs for months now and last week I finally decided to take the plunge into the quilting world. I have started my first quilt-top and I'm almost done with that part, I just need to add a border. I used 2 Thimbleberry charm packs bought off of Etsy and some solid green fabric. I used no pattern, just started sewing.


It started as 4 square blocks

In comes the green

4 squares become 16
