Hi there, everyone. My name is Janet. I was referred to this site to look at the One Block Wonder, which I have found to be the most amazing thing I have seen in a long while. At first, it looked to be quite tedious, but as I watched my friend start hers, I soon became "sold" on the idea and hope to start one as soon as I can purchase the book and fabric. I have two grown children in Ohio, a cat, a dog, and a s/o, Don. I am originally from Houston, TX. I look forward to learning and sharing ideas on this site. Thank you for having me :)

Welcome to QB! Glad to have you join us. Just had a wonderful couple move into our area from Conroe! I do believe they grow good people as well as quilters there. Looking forward to hearing from you again soon.

Welcome from Ireland. I am new also and love it here. Everybody is so helpful.

Back at you from Conroe. Thanks :)

Hi, My name is Sandy. I'm also from Houston. Went to Reagan High in the Heights. Love the One Block Wonder. Still haven't masstered it yet. Stil WIP.If you find a easy way to do it, let me know.

Hello from Central Texas. I'm new here too.

Hi, and welcome from Central Texas. I have a friend who lives in Conroe and her nephew runs a retreat center there. It's a really nice city.

Hi Sandy. My s/o went to Reagan in the early 60's. I went to Lamar in the mid 60's.

If you will look under tutorials, there is one for the OBW. Having watched Wini cut hers out and reading the tutorial, I have a real good understanding of it. I have not received my book, yet, but it is my understanding that Cutebuns Tutorial on this board is much better.

I have torn up my sewing room going thru fabric and have determined I need to go shopping LOL. I hope to do this tomorrow and get started cutting on Saturday at Wini's house.

Hi :) What kind of retreat center? Where in Conroe? Thank you for the welcome.
Janet

Thanks for the info. Where do you find the info you were refuring to. I'm new to this and don't really know my way around yet. Help.
