    So, here's what I have been up to lately. Cathedral Window (sample) was done yesterday using Eddie's tutorial (thanks Eddie). Bow Tucks purses are Christmas presents this year. The other quilt is left overs from another quilt so I put it together just to practice for free motion quilting.

    Thanks! I have decided to make a goal of learning something NEW (not just fabric related) everyday! Today I learned how to post more than 3 pics @ a time here. Phew! Tomorrow I take on RAG Quilts made of flannel....

    They all look great! I especially like your "leftover" quilt. It doesn't look like leftovers at all! It's a great way to practice FMQ.

    Come to quilting with me on Thursday-all of us are making them together.....changes I made... longer handles, 2 outside pockets and 2 button loops. This is the smaller version. They are easy to make. Hint: Write down what measurements go with floral and stripe, write them in separate columns. I had a heck of a time figuring out what measurement went with what fabric... cause they don't mention in the cutting directions...

    :lol:

    Hey there, awesome CW I love the fabric you chose. I just got some of the "Fruit Ladies" (the ladies that have fruit shaped bottoms) fabric in the mail today. I want to make some sort of bag with it so I can use it and people can see it. Any ideas?
