    I decided if any of my children or grandchildren admired one of my quilts, I would give it to them on the spot. I have a stack of lovingly crafted quilts. I am 85 and no takers yet.

    Very well done. The slight color difference adds to the charm. It accurately reflects the work of two different eras.

    I may be missing something, but if you trace it on the wrong side of the fabric instead of the right side, wouldn’t it be mirror image when you cut it out?

    I made a bed size quilt that was all appliqué and used the back basting method. I tried a few other methods first, but found back basting best. Enjoy the class.

    Pinking shears

    I have occasional need for pinking shears. The pair I have are too dull to do a good job. What are the best pinking shears that are very sharp and grip the fabric so it doesn’t slip?
