Welcome from Oklahoma. DH and I just got home from San Antonio. Spent a week there seeing sites and visiting my great uncle.

Will be interested in your recommendations. Beth

You will love San Antonio. You need to get in touch with BeBe. She is on this board too. A very nice lady. There is a great place out on Blanco called Creative Sewing Center. Also BeBe goes to New Braunfels to a shop & belongs to a guild there. There is also one called Seventh Heaven & another with a spanish name that means blanket. I can't remember the name off the top of my head. Get ready girl cause the place is hot but I still love it.

Hello and Welcome to the board :D:D:D

The quilt you want to make is usual constructed by hand sewing, the method is English Paper piecing. Most LQS will sell the papers you need, and in various sizes.

Our head Mod, Patrice, also made us a tutorial/class on how to sew them by machine :D:D:D
