    Linda and Jaba, what a treat to see you both ... even if it was at the sad moment of parting.

    I'm trying to brat, no Internet on laptop long enough to post. Will have to when we get home. In Salt Lake now but leaving shortly. Looked at a new toy hauler yesterday and loved it but not for $45,000.00 difference. We don't use it that much.

    I'm lookin! Ooh, that one looks hard. I'm so intimidated by paper piecing! I did find this one though: http://www.creativequiltkits.com/gro...er-quilts.html

    This one is "cute to death" (as my friend Lisa would say) too! http://www.monstermarketplace.com/qu...stant-download

    My boyfriend pre-ordered me this book today after I raved about it on Facebook, lol: http://www.amazon.com/Adorable-Anima...g_hu-rd_dp_img

    The giraffe in there is applique though. I may have to do it anyway because it's adorable!

    Check out this tutorial, I found it very easy to follow. I used her technique to piece my first heart and it had 34 pieces.
