    Wow, thank you all so much! I am certainly addicted - I love it! I didn't really know where to start when I first decided to make a quilt so I just found a beginner pattern I thought would be good for my 3 year old granddaughter and just went for it. I made a lot of mistakes, but at least by the second and third quilts I was making new mistakes. LOL

    Twinkie - no, I did all the applique on the machine, except for the teddy bear faces - those are hand embroidered directly onto the fabric.

    Thanks for all of your encouragement and very nice replies. Makes me excited to try more differing patterns.

    Applique on your first quilt attempt. You are amazing. I have still to tackle that after several years of learning. Good job!
