Step 1 is here if you want it: http://oldredbarnco.blogspot.com/200...ng-week-1.html

    Just keep in mind it is only fabric--not your life! Make the leap and if you mess up--you will figure it out.

    Remember the christmas show that has a song in it that goes something like this, "Put one foot in front of the other and soon you will be walking out the door..." Listen to lyour fabric, they will tell you what pattern they want. You have to be quiet to listen, though. Good luck!!!!

    Hello from the Big South Fork Mountains, Tenn. Just find a simple pattern, i.e. 9 patch or rail fencing - before you know it, you'll be shouting "Look, I did it!".
