Are you serious? I probably wouldn't be much help.

I just posted some pictures of some of these blocks that I did. Just my favorites, to show you what some of them would look like when they are made up. Here's a link to that post.

Thank you very much! I am thinking about designing some quilts and blocks and seeing about selling my patterns. I made the Carpenter's Star pattern that is here under tutorials, and the Field of Diamonds pattern. I also made the Missouri Star that is shown here, but I made a regular pattern out of it as I don't PP.

I have made patterns for things for the past 20 years. I have designed my own patterns in knitting, crocheting, macrame, and plastic canvas. I just started quilting a year and a half ago and have already been making my own patterns in quilting too.
Do you think my patterns would actually sell???

Thanks for the compliments and the vote of confidence. My daughter says the same thing. I talked to her Friday and she wants to design me a website of my own to show and sell my quilts and patterns, do tutorials, etc. We're going to go for it!
Thanks again!
