    This "Beach Cottages" quilt was my first paper pieced project. I just finished binding it and it's in the washer now. Here's a link to my original post. http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-32966-1.htm and here is a link to the pattern. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php...ng_id=38469031

    This was the quilt that I screw up one of the waves. Here's a link to the post of how I fixed it. http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-33658-1.htm

    Thanks for looking and for all the moral support thru this project! :)

    The sun and palm trees are my favorite blocks in this one!

    Thank you. I must admit, I am especially proud of this baby! It's a wedding gift ~ 2 weeks late, but I think they will forgive me. I hate to give it away, but at least they live locally and I can visit it often!

    I have this pattern, but haven't done anything with it yet. You've given me incredible inspiration! Your quilt is gorgeous, and I love your solution to a mistake. Great job, thank you for sharing.

    That turned out beautiful. Your friends will treasure it. That wasn't a mistake; it was a design opportunity. Great job!!
