Ok, so here I am. In the quilting forum. I'm giving this a try.

I'm out to buy a book this week. I just can't get into the kits they sell. Ugh, the patterns. I've designed my own. Three of them!

I love the designing part!

I start cutting scraps this weekend for a test run on my new pattern! I have nothing figured out yet, but the math part for calculating block/piece sizes, etc.

I'm a hands on kinda gal, so I'm jumping in!

I've read every thread on quilting I could find on SWN, so I'll be back for help!

Bama, I haven't even cut more than practice strips, and I'm already addicted! I'm gonna have way more patterns designed than I can possibly make!
