well that is a real kick in the pants.

they are very limited in how often they put the quilt out for public viewing.

You sound like me - champagne taste on a koolaid budget! :lol:

Darn it! I really, really want to do this. ... <sigh> Okay, I'll have to budget in to buy the software for myself. Hopefully the next 6 weeks will be good ones at the restaurant where I work. I am only able to work one day a week (darn health!) so I don't have a lot of wiggle room. Maybe I can talk one of my daughter's into going in on it with me and calling it a Christmas gift. :wink:

I don't know that I would ever finish this if it were just myself working on it, and the last thing I need is another UFO! Some of you may remember I had about 100 of them. I'm now down to around 90. It would be less but I keep starting new projects. It's not entirely my fault! Five of the quilts I'm making are baby quilts and I am NOT responsible for any of them - the babies, not the quilts. LOL. Anyway, I think this is something I will finish if I'm doing it along with the rest of you and I can't help but be excited.

Now I'll have to really pay attention to the files on page 1.

I hope there is a way for everyone who want to join up to do so....it will be a ton of fun and I think a great motivator for us to actually finish the quilt! My problem is in making decisions...I want to make one with a dark background....and also one with a light background...now which to choose for the cyber party????
