WM doesn't seem to make good decisions. When they got rid of the layaway I about died, it was the only way I could get Christmas gifts for our kids. Our only choice for shopping is WM. We have a few small stores that carry junk products. There is a kmart but I have to drive 45 mins to get there and an hour and a half for a target. Some ppl really don't have any choice but to shop WM. I don't like WM either but I have to shop there anyway.

Whose avatar are you talking about? There are some really nice quilts in lots of people's avi's!

Mine is called called Center Stage put out by Pieced Tree Patterns. It's a little laminated card, around 3 1/2" X 5 1/2" with the pattern picture on one side and the directions on the other side. You can find them online or in your local quilt shop.

lol, I guess i should have specified huh! I was wondering about Dina's---that is really cool!!!!
Quilter, yours looks too complicated for me...points and shading. I am still on basic shapes, lol!!!

Well at least with the prepackaged stuff you don't have to find someone, in WM, to wait on you.

It's not difficult at all. The instructions on the back of the card tell you that you need a light, a medium and a dark fabric. At least check out the patterns online. They really are easy!
