Hi everyone,
I am new to quilting and your group. I have been english paper piecing my UFO (attached.) This is my first quilt.... many have asked me why I picked such a detailed pattern. Silly me, 'cuz I thought is was pretty. I'm happy to be a part of your group. I know I can glean alot from all of you experienced quilters. Until next time . . . . Vicky P.S. Yes it is cold here on the Gulf . . . in the twenties at night..... forties during the day. |

Welcome from on the road, getting ready to leave the snowy city of Detroit (UGH). Know why everyone else is going somewhere else, for sure. I am also working on a hexagon paper piecing right now with 3" hexagons. Your's look a bit smaller than that. Yes, it's quite an endeavor, but you should see the first quilt I did. We learn from experience, and seems to me you are doing a great job. If you love your choices and love what you are doing, that's 90% of the project. Post the pic when you finish it.

Hello and welcome from Germany! Your quilt is very pretty!

I live on the Gulf Coast in Alabama also. Today it's not quite as nippy as the last couple of nights but wait till next week....we're going into the teens at night.
Check into quilt guilds in the area. There's one in Gulf Shores, one in Mobile (meets next Tuesday) and one in Pensacola (not too far away). And don't know if you know about A&E Pharmacy in Pensacola but they have a great quilt store/fabric store. |
Vicky, I have a quilt that is this pattern that has been in my family for YEARS...have no idea how many, the top in places is so worn that the real cotton batting is showing thru and the binding is barely intact...it is my husband and boys favorite covering....the pattern is worth the work..it is on my TO QUILT LIST....enjoy. memepeggy

Am I understanding you correctly? A quilt/fabric store inside a pharmacy? |

Hi Yarn or Fabric, I remember Huntsville all to well. That's where hubby & I hunkered down when we left town to escape Katrina. Huntsville folks were very warm. Vicky |
