    I took a class in Foundation Piecing today and finally learned how to do it. I can't believe how easy and accurate it is.

    I made a Winter Wreath Placemat with it and fully finished the top of one and got a decent start on the second. I had originally signed up for the class in 2006 and DH got called out of town at the last minute so I lost my childcare and was finally able to arrange childcare on the same day as the class is offered for today.

    I have downloaded a paper pieced pattern for Storm at Sea and want to make a queen sized one for my sister.

    So excited and just wanted to share that I learned a new quilting skill today!

    Tara
