I think aside of all the tips is how much heart each and every one of you have. You are always right there for everyone no matter what the reason. I consider myself blessed to be a part of this board. Thanks to all. God bless.

1. Learned that everyone else is not perfect either, what a relief that was.

2. Starch is my friend.

3. A day without Ditter is a like a day without sunshine.

4. That this is the place to come if you have a question.

ME too! If you use blue painter's tape, you have no sticky residue issues. If you leave masking tape on too long, especially on plastic, it WILL leave a sticky residue.

I agree on this tip also. My husband just picked up two packages for me and they cut better than Olfa. Let's not tell Harbor Freight or they might raise the price. :)

However, the greatest part of this forum for me has been the dear friend I have met. We have written back and forth for about 2 months and I even found myself buying fabric for her in her favorite color (pink), which I hate. I am very grateful for her, and of course, for all of you.

I finally got to go to HB and finally found the cutter wheels that everyone has been talking about and bought three packages with two extras in each one. Yeah! also I've learned so much from this site that I can't even begin to remember it all. Love all of it. Thanks everyone, you're the bestg.

My crafty friends are new to quilting, I love it, most of my quilting group, four ladies we meet every Wednesday thought quilting was too hard, however when I demonstrated "Tube Quilting" it has opened new horizons.

Also now we can purchase top quality fabric that cost 1 third of the price we have to pay in Australia and may I say very efficient service, quilting has really taken off, with us buying all our fabric from the US your economy is about to get a boost.

Regards

Aussie Carol

So many - tutes, starch, not having to be perfect etc. etc.
And even though I don't log in and just read this site everyday I feel a part of this great quilting family and don't feel alone.
