I like doing them because i can make what ever fabrics and color scheme I want and it's like making costumes again, but they will always fit and no gets to back talk to the designer......LOL

How big is that loop Robert? I would love to have a big Santa for a panel in one of my quilts, I think my biggest loop is 10 X 6

Thank you! and have fun while your away, but don't stay gone too long - we'll miss you!

Has anyone used the Quilt-Pro Systems Mariners Compass program? I pruchased it just a couple of weeks ago and am doing a block for my partner and it is a bugger. Two of the paper piece patterns were backwards so after sewing them all, you realize this and have to make two more wedges, then it does not give you a sized template for the outer ring to setin your compass. Boy, if I had know that it was going to be so mixed up, I would not have purchased the program. I wanted to do something special for my partner this month and I have been definitely challenged. Yes, I did sew them correctly because I marked colors on each and every number for the block. It was not a complicated pattern, but marked them correctly. That was the first thing I checked to be sure I did not do something wrong.

I sent my partners block out yesterday.
