    Gosh Shelly , I wish you had been around when I first started quilting. You have given out some great information for beginners and for some of oldsters too. Thanks, Helen

    A PDF file would be wonderful! The BEST thing you stated was that there is no such thing as a perfect block!! I have held myself to impossible standards since I started quilting although everyone else tells me how wonderful my quilts are!? I'm so glad to hear that no one is perfect!!! Thanks! I always pin thru the intersections to make sure they match. I'm getting pretty good at it! The worst problem I have is CUTTING!!! :lol: I think it's the lighting iin my sewing room. (& my 'old' eyes!) No matter how careful I am, I just can't seem to cut correctly!? Thanks for taking the time to do this. Although I have made many quilts, it's always good to hear something from a different point of view! :lol:

    Thank you, Shelley, for your wonderful tutorial! You make it so easy to understand and the pictures are great. A PDF would be handy. There is so much I want to save.
