This is a show stopper! I hope you plan to enter it somewhere! It is truly a winner!

Can you tell me where I can get instructions to do Stack n Whack for that pattern?

So, I just quilted around the fans and then tacked them with embrodiery thread through the center. It made them look kinda like the little tassles that used to hold the old fans together. I don't know if you can see them in these photos or not. See what you think.

I use light heat and bond and it seems to me to be softer and more plyable. Love your quilt it is beautful.

OOps! Sorry about the duplication. When the first one didn't "fly," I sent it again. :oops:
