I sent you a PM.

I want to thank each and every one of you for your friendship, terrific support and enthusiasm and for all the compliments and time you invest in me and my topics. It means alot to me and I don't know how to say it other than just Thanks for Everything! It means sooooo much!

Congratulations.

Congratulations! Wish I could be there!

Congratulations on your success. You are an inspiration to everyone who wants to quilt. Support from this site is one of the greatest I've seen ever, but it starts with you and getting out of your comfort zone.

So glad to see that you are not backing down and you've set some goals. I am proud of you. Enjoy your new found hobby and post all your pics here. We would love to see your progress.

I, too have been quilting a little over 2 years and my quilts have gotten better with each quilt I make. My quilting has become part of me and I always want to challenge myself with intricate new patterns.

Enjoy your trip and fill us in when you get back.

That is awesome! I just looked at your quilt. It is beautiful! Is that one you made your own pattern for? Amazing accomplishment. Congratulations! :thumbup:

What kind of applique quilt are you making? There are some other ways to do applique. Have you looked at some of Eleanor Burns quilts, she does a sew and turn with fusible interfacing on the back of the applique pieces.

Can't wait to see what you do for the next round. We have such talented people here on the board!!!

Fantastic! Good for you!!

That's wonderful!
