O.K. JenniM I have completed your Valentine Table runner. I'd post a photo, but I want you to be the first to see it! As I am Beginner, I hope you will forgive the flaws LOL! I tried my hand at several" firsts", such as applique, and hand/machine quilting. I even made up my own design! I l almost wanted to keep it and make another for you! So if I like it, then maybe you will too! :) I can't wait to send it and I am excited to see what you made.I am also excited to see what everyone else is making!

After playing around with the EQ7 I think I have a pattern to make. What is really neat it prints out the block and instructions on what to do or how many to cut. I also put in the colors I will be using and it allowed me to play around with those. I am finding something new every day and every time I get on it. I usually start with the hardest thing to do first, when I am learning something new but this time I have gone easy. After I send it off and my partner has received it I will try to post a picture of what I made.

Cool. Can't wait to see it. Is this the software that also lets you to take a scan of your fabric and then use it for your patterns? I thought that would be good.

Love it.

Hope to get your material tomorrow. Then to decide which applique will work best.

I did an hand applique on the Minnie dress for my niece.
She doesn't look too happy in the picture but see did love it. She's not a morning person and breakfast with Minnie was at 7:30 am.
