    I am new to quilting and I do not know how to do paper piecing or some of the blocks people are wanting. I am intimidated. I also do not know what the 30's print or theme is. I know that I have allegies, so I will have to talk with bookworm. I am scared! Would the sashing be included in the size of row we are to make?

    Sherry, take a deep breath and relax. It can all seem intimidating and overwhelming now, but when it gets started, it will be fun. No one expects you to do any more then you're capable of. We were all new at some stage.
    Smile, and relax, it will all work out and be fun. :thumbup:

    If I get someone who has Batiks in their quilt I'll be thrilled - that means I get to go shopping since I don't have many in my stash.
    woo hoo!!!! i'm Batiks!! i'm Batiks!! lol...
    i hope you get me!!! i've chosen 'Autumn garden' in Batiks... can't wait to start!!
    this gives a wide area to play with i.e, leaves, trees, hedgehogs, pumpkins, in blocks, paper piecing, applique etc etc etc...
    isn't this fun!!!?!!!
    love jacquie xxxxx

    The more I read this thread the more excited I get. I'm very nervous to work on someone else's quilt but I am very excited to see how mine will turn out. I think I will just go with a color scheme instead of a design theme. I just bought this fabric from fabric.com that turned out to to be even prettier than it looked on the computer. So my color scheme is going to be blue with contrasting colors of anything in the cream/beige/tan family. As far as design or method is concerned....anything goes. This is gonna be so much fun for me!

    What if a person's theme is the log cabin block and you do not know how to do that?

    If that happened you could always find fabric that had a log cabin or pine trees, etc. I was going to do "Flower Garden" but was afraid people would think they had to applique a flower so I change it to "Spring" so beginners can use a "Springy" fabric and make blocks that they know how to do. I'm a real beginner so I totally understand! I think everyone on here is SO helpful that it won't be a problem.

    If you don't know how to do something then either do a version that you do know or just ask the starter of the quilt or just ask on here for help
