Thank you for all your wonderful comments. I really appreciate the encouragement it gives me, to keep trying new patterns and turn them in to works of art. I find I'm very impatient when piecing and also I need to concentrate more on what I'm doing. Music is better than TV for that.

Beautiful.

I have a quilting hoop like that. How do you do the quilt to keep it from shifting? Do you baste it first, or what. I would love to use mine but don't quite know how to keep all three layers from shifting?
