The owner at my LQS just returned from market and was telling us the new neutral or background color for next year is gray. Thought that was interesting.

Thanks FJ. It wasn't me but now I'll go looking for Alice's Tulips. Maybe the local library has it.

Hello, A question. I have seen pillow cases made using a tube. Is a tube quilt made basically the same way?

Thanks,

Diane

No, Look on ConKerr Cancer website for the pillowcase instructions. The "tube" happens right before you turn it.

It seems that my projects are better when I am just doing what I really love, regardless of trends. In the end I just need to be true to myself.

I like to look at the new stuff, but love the oldies, but goodies.

I think there are so many things that can be trendy, it's up to you...do what you like and maybe it will be a new trend!

I totally agree with cjtinkle, but have printed them out in the past. Will try this approach from now on .

I am not a gadget hound; but do like traditional patterns and working with many kinds of colors and ideas. I have some things I never use (special rulers and such) but I don't have enough time to learn lots of new techniques.
