What a wonderful way to meet new quilting friends, and here you are from Spain . Can you tell me where the pattern came from I think I would like to try to make at least one. the only paper pieceing I have done is with the half sqs . I have been teaching my two sisters how to make quilts online and I have a friend of mine that has been coming over every Sunday and I am teaching her. :D

I am not sure how to go about putting a picture up on this site. :lol:

Have a wonderful day....Clara

This quilt is called Bright Hopes

Izy thanks for that I will certainly have a look. Have had a prob tonight with the computer, but it seems to be okay now.

Good day today at the club, not many there, will PM you with what is for next week, canīt say much at the mo.

Got stuck in with the quilting and practiced for ages. Then realised I didnīt have the ruddy feed dogs down so was making it so much more difficult. Once that penny dropped I suddenly found things happening and then I found a design that worked for me, quite a simple one. So all in all pleased with my efforts, although far from perfect.

Elle.

Elle.....this is a journey, and on the way we may wander...sometimes its the right way and sometimes not....oh dear I have getting very deep, what I am trying to say is you got to start SOMEWHERE, and eventually you will find your 'place' and it will feel right!! Just keep going.....!! :D

I love it. It is spectacular. Wish someone would show me how to paper piece. I know it has to be complicated to turn something out that pretty. Love it Keep up the good work.

Its not complicated, you do I think need someone to show you how, Carol Doakīs book and also on line you can see how it is done. Hope you try it, really is worth that little effort to get started.

Nice to meet you. Elle
