i would LOVEto try out one of your patterns. I am a beginner and love to quilt. Don't need to get paid, got tons of material to work with too!! Would love to help you out too if i can. I would be awesome to see someone "i know" win something like this!!! Good luck on the pattern and your entry. Let me know if I can do anything to help you out :D :!:

my biggest problem has been that i keep wandering off in tangents. i'll be almost to the point at which i can "package" one for presentation when somebody will say something that gives me an idea. then off i go in that direction to get it into the computer before i lose it. the patterns are turning into a herd of virtual PIGs and UFOs.
i'm looking for volunteers to test my patterns. all skill levels - but especially folks who consider themselves beginners. nothing irritates me more than a pattern that claims to be ideal for beginners that turns out to be a nightmare for experts.
i can't offer to pay money unless (i guess i should think more positively and say "until") i start making enough to share the wealth. the current offer is a free copy of all versions of the final pattern and full credit to the testers mentioned in the booklets. if you create one or more unique layouts different to the ones in the test pattern, i'll list you as holder of the copyright to those layouts. you can either use your own fabrics and color schemes or ask me to send what you need to make the top as i've colored it. whatever you make is - of course - yours to do keep, give, donate or sell. i'd just need an honest review of how easy or difficult the pattern was to follow and at least one good photo of the completed top or final quilt.
anybody interested?

Going through some older postings to find an 'address' and came across this topic. So, what is happening? Is the book out yet? If you still need volunteers LMK. I need something to get me off my butt and do some creative quilting. A deadline would be just what I need. I get too easily sidetracked lately - retirement is getting away from me.

Patrice, your dream wasn't put on hold, like some plants, it was just growing stronger roots before it flowers. If anyone can do this, you can! Lord knows you've got the talent, the brains and the drive! We are all there with you every step of the way.
