Thanks

My block looks so plain after seeing all these beautiful blocks. I am rather new and I am afraid to try something hard, But next time I am going to take a walk on the wild side. If it's not the best I'll just have to keep trying. Look out everyone Im breaking outside the box!! LOL

You should see my block - It's a simple pinwheel and I had such a hard time with it for some reason... I posted it because I thought it was boring but others really liked it!!

IMO, having only complicated blocks can make a quilt too busy looking. I think a good balance includes everything from simple to complicated and in between. I'd be happy to have a block from either one of you and am glad you have joined us here.

Just wait until you see what you can do and all that you learn. This is a wonderful, safe place to learn, so take the leap. You will be glad you did, and welcome. :-)

I love this board. Quilters are the best people in the world!
