    Hi Dick

    I love your quilts and your choice of colours. I would love to attempt a quilt like yours, where can I find a pattern for the postage stamp quilt?

    Very beautiful! I noticed the metal ruler in the photo, do you use it with your rotary cutter? I have been tempted to use carpenter tools/and metal rulers in the past, but afraid of using them. Just curious on the question.
    Thanks!

    Dick you did a beautiful job. I enjoyed watching your initial fabrics come together in this beautiful way. I made this pattern when I was first into quilting and one of the biggest challenges for me was the fabric selection, which I really struggled with. It is almost impossible to tell what they are going to look like once they're sewn together and in your case, they shine. Congratulations and thanks for sharing.

    No I never use the metal ruler for that , it could ruin my cutter. I have it there to give the room a male feeling.
