    WOW !! You are one brave gal. I would never have attempted so many pieces on my first run. I'll echo on what another poster said :: I still use big pieces. I'd say that you're on your way to making lots of happy quilts.

    Margie,

    No, it's templates. I believe she talks about using strip methods but I didn't use that info.

    Thanks Again to Everyone for the warm welcome and the encouraging comments about my quilt!

    julieah :wink:

    Julieah, when you're up to it, give cutting strips a try. It's simple and quick. If you try that, I'll try templates. I have a whole set of templates waiting to be used (for years and years) and I keep putting them aside and go to something else -- I think it's called procrastination. :lol:

    Wow! You did a great job. Did you quilt it yourself also? Have you been sewing all these years or just very talented? It's wonderful!
