Hello ladies, I am finally catching up. I am glad to be part of this group. I have read all of the posts and love all of the center blocks that have been posted.
Now for me.i am Melinda's mom. I am 64 and have been sewing since I was about 8 or 9. I have been quilting since I was in my mid 20's. I do long arm quilting but it is all free hand. No computer. You have all been very generous with your offers of help with postage and if I find myself I need of help with it I will ask.
Dragonfly Nana I agree that paper piecing is trying to sew backwards. For some reason my mind will not compute it.
I have not decided on a center block as of yet nor my colors. When I get there I will post pictures.
