Hey! I'm pretty new to quilting but I just can't get enough of it. I think I have bought enough fabric for at least, the very least, 10 quilts, dust ruffles, curtains and shower curtains but I am having a ball. Sewing is all I want to do. Anyway, sorry for being so winded just excited I guess. So, hey again from Alabam. :mrgreen:

Welcome from Oregon!! It's OK to get excited.....indicates you're still alive!

I geuss so. It was just that my introduction was so much longer than every one elses. I have a question about a quilt that I'm starting on. Can you try to help me?

what's the question?

Do I need to go to another area to ask questions?

No, But I will redirect you to another thread as soon as I can. What's the question?

Hi and welcome from the sunny state of Florida!! We all get sew excited for fabric!!

Welcome from Pine Grove, CA!

It certainly sounds like you have the itch to stitch!

Welcome from central Alabama. What a great place you have found. It does seem you got bit good by that quilt bug. Ask away, we are always glad to answer questions.

Welcome from Minnesota, It's a good thing to get and stay excited, especially about quilting. I can never get enough of it myself.

Sorry I was busy with something else. My question is: I am trying to make a twin size quilt in a stitch and flip pattern. I have only made a lap quilt size. I don't have a pattern for a twin. Do I just repeat the pattern once more or do I need to add more?

I need to make this quilt quick It's for my boyfriends daughter for her birthday and her b-day is the 16th. BRB

Did everyone leave me? I'm sorry I left.

give them a little time, they'll be back. tee hee Can you post pictures of the one that you made so we have an idea of what time of flip and sew pattern your trying to make?

I need to get my boyfriend to take a picture and put it on the computer. I'm a computer dummy but I will get him to. I've had a hard time trying to figure out how to get to where I am now.

Hello and welcome. I'm new on here to. I'm in Texas.

Plus how do I read what everyone posts on here? It seems to take a while for a response. It seems like when I go and do something else, on the computer for a while, and come back then I have a response. Am I doing something wrong or what?

Hey. What part of Texas? I'm just above Montgomery.

Depending on the size of the lap, you may need to add more than one just row. A twin should measure about 60X95. If you can add borders, that will increase the size and may be faster than adding rows.

Do you know how to do a stitch and flip quilt? It is the easiest one to make or at least it seems that way to me. I have only made one but I had so much fun. I'm not a wonderful sewer but I think that I did okay. I figured out how to make my own binding on my own. I'm very proud of the quilt.

That sounds like a good idea. I hadn't thought of that.

I've never mace one, but I can imagine ....................

Hello and welcome from SW Iowa. Glad to have you here.

Welcome to the board from Southern California!!!

Welcome from Maryland.

Hello and welcome from california.

Welcome from Rockford IL. Never made a stitch and flip, but I agree with yourstrulyquilts, adding rows and boarders to get the size you want usually works quite well. And don't worry it just takes practice to find your way around here and everyone is very nice and helpful.

Welcome from Centennial, Colorado!

Hey Neighbor. I'm in South Louisiana.

There is a chat thingy elsewhere on here (As you can see I'm still a dummy here). This is not a live chat. We get to it when we get to it. :wink:

Welcome from Oklahoma with a Massachusetts accent. So happy you could be here. There is always room for one more quilter.
