Ditto, what she said. Exactly what I do and on the same machine.

Awsome I sure would like to try that after I try the Kaleidoscope
first. Those flower quilts are absolutely beautiful. Great Job!

hey don't stop now. pratice makes it better. I took out my quilts dozens of times because I had a grand mother and a teacher who maked me do it. I hateded it then but am glad now. I still have to take out sometimes but you learn each time you do.

Joeyoz - Beautiful work!!! I really don't think that I could be that precise enevn with practice. I guess I lose interest or concentraion after awhile.

I am far from an experienced quilter, but just finished making a variation of the log cabin pattern into a King Size quilt for my daughter. I did what they call SITD and
made it on my little Brother sewing machine which only has about a 7" throat. It wasn't a simple task, and it took about 6 months to quilt since I also work. Scrunching was the way I worked it into my machine. It really can be done.
