    OOOOOOH TY lol. Sometimes these abbreviations throw me. The irony of it is, I do "ME" and never guessed it :)

    I agree with SharonC. I posted my "wonky quilt" a few days ago - and should have stay stitched/basted along those edges before I cut it. It kept growing but not in a good way! All the quilts posted are beautiful.

    I have made two French braid quilts out of scraps. I cut them 2 1/2 by 7 1/2. I have put a solid color between the rows which I think really makes it pop more. The rule of thumb is whatever the width, the length should be 3x's that. You can really do a lot without a pattern; just use your judgment. The first one I made I was going to give as a charity quilt but my two granddaughters talked me out of it. I am working on another one right now. Good luck.

    Are we looking in the right place for your quilt? If it has machine embroidered panels you would probably find it in some book or site on ME. Can you tell us what sort of embroidery designs and colours were used, Is it anything like this one at http://www.kennykreations.com/produc...cobean-garden/
