    This is mostly from charms. Went together very quickly. Quilting will be much slower. I can't get the hang of free motion machine quilting.


    Happy Trails

    I am not that creative to make it up as I go along. Not yet anyway. I have a hard time color coordinating fabrics.

    I have a pattern. It is # 1133 Charming Trails, by Whistlepig Creek Productions. It's designed for charm packs. The fabric is Twiggy by Moda.

    I have had a couple hand surgeries and am still having trouble. Someone on the board suggested precut materials. What a great idea! Charms also eliminated the problems with color choices.

    Very attractive.
    Your free motion will improve every time you try it.
    Just remember to breathe <g> ... and, do not forget that there isn't any professional quilter that was born that way ...
    I trace patterns with my fingers for awhile before I start quilting. It really does help.
    You will do a grand job <wave>
