:mrgreen: I am Leslie and very new to quilting. I have spent the last 4-5 years requesting donation and cutting fabric for a group in Oshkosh Wisc.
Now it's time for me to learn. I would really like to get a pattern and instruction for Washington Pavement? Or I believe that is the name.
Can you help Me????
I will help anyone who doesn't mind a NEWBIE!!!!!

Thanx Sammy89. I am glad there is hope for me yet. I don't have a picture, but I will try and find one. The Washington Pavement pattern was suggested to me to try.

I have a pattern for a block called the Washington Puzzle, but it looks like a block for an advanced piecer, not a newbie. I will scan it in if you like.

Sammy89,

We are glad to have you. You have lived every parents worst nightmare & I am so sorry for your loss. I have 3 girls & can't imagine my life without one of them. I am glad for you to have found the stregnth to return to quilting for rehabilitating therapy, and I am glad you found us. Maybe we can be of some "professional" (I use that term loosly- some of us are border line certifiable on our best days :lol: ) assistance, and hopefully some of our antics will bring an occasional smile to your face.

Hello. I'm a beginner Texas Quilter. I have to confess choosing the fabric is my favorite part.

[b]Hello everyone! I am new to the forum, but very pleased to say I have been on the mailing list for quite a while, now. I enjoy your messages, and I so appreciate your kindness in sharing. My quilting skills, are minimal now, however, hopefully one day I will be able to share some ideas. I have learned that 'ripping', is no fun, if that helps anyone. Therefore, slow and steady, works better for me.

Happy stitching,
Emerald
