    I have bought two of the Angler2. the first one I messed up cutting it out. I think the thing should have a perforated edge on the cut outs. The second one I rarely use, it gets in my way. I have several of her patterns but I cut and sew the pieces together more my way then how she suggests. I really like her pattern designs.

    Check out her corrections page to see if your pattern is listed there :wink: before you start :D:D:D

    I just looked at this link - that's an awful lot of corrections - I don't recall seeing any other site with so many.

    I have done one of her quilts. I found it very easy to do as long as you pay attention to the instructions. Here is a picture of the one I did. I reduced it down to a crib size but the parents to be loved it so much they made it a wall hanging in their family room. This is from her book "Quick Rotary Cutter Quilts". At the time I made it I considered myself an intermediate piecer. I machine quilted it with hand quilting of the bears.

    I haven't started mine yet, but have downloaded quite a few of the initial patterns. My daughter did one (the letter H) with roses appliqued on and it turned out beautifully. I wish I had gotten a picture before she gave it away.

    I love her patterns! Here is a table runner I did. I have one of her books & have downloaded some of her free patterns. I do best by using a scant 1/4 in seam allowance. 2nd picture is table runner with placemats & napkins. also will now do a much better job on the binding since I learned the secret of going around those angles that are not 90 degree :-D :-D :-D . this site has been so helpful

    Feline Fanatic and Pepperment31, I love your work. I think I am getting close to working on the Daisys In The Cabin, but I really like to bears and how you hand quilted them. My oldest daughter and my son would both love that. Thanks for replying.

    I have just spent the last hour logged on to Pam Bono's site and I'm absolutely in love with her designs !!!
    Plus, with all the info she has to offer one only needs this site.
    Thanks for making me curious, ladies. kutnso

    Thank you for reminding me that I have a kit from her that I purchased a few years ago! I guess I need to haul it out of the closet. I really love her patterns and the Angler 2 is really slick for making half square triangles.
