    I just learned to PP last month. I did a couple of Christmas ornaments and was pleased with them. I'm working on a tulip but ran into a problem with a curved leaf. I'll post it when I get it finished. Thanks for all the discussion & tips. A lot to learn but it's so worth it. Thanks everyone!

    Thank you Krazy Girl!!! I saw your first PP too. You did a great job on it. Did you have problems making it? I didn't want to use any of my favorite fabrics for this, just in case I decided I needed to throw it in the trash!! :lol: :lol: :lol: Keep posting pictures of your projects. Maybe it'll give me the inspiration to keep trying. I sure hope so or those Mariner's Compasses and New York Beauty's and others are really going to be a problem!!! :mrgreen:

    Thank you Sandpat! I appreciate it. I'm wondering if I'm going to get the hang of this or not. I need the encouragement! :lol:

    If we start this pp habit, does this mean we need to keep more of our scraps?

    (I'm so disorganzied already!)
