No, not quite yet. As it's a RR top there are no regular block formats to follow and I just can't make up my mind on how to do it justice, but I'll keep watching and maybe with your inspirition get some idea and courage to start (it's now a year too late engagement present).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05386852386404591819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-80368162449813917542009-11-02T11:59:55.017-05:002009-11-02T11:59:55.017-05:00I have only recently found your blog and I am thor...I have only recently found your blog and I am thoroughly enjoying reading it.

Another way to mark a quilt like this is with a ruler and a Hera marker; I love that there's nothing to erase once the stitching is done.Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08418320852653847841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-25152730715071911132009-11-01T17:47:50.169-05:002009-11-01T17:47:50.169-05:00Excellent!

I don't have a free motion foot but would love to get one. My Singer is about 26 years old so I think I'll have to do some searching. Also I think the gloves and the teflon mat would be very helpful too. <br /><br />Thanks for the great ideas!<br /><br />MGMMary Grace McNamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04994668228832105911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-39182879852731770462009-11-01T16:34:31.639-05:002009-11-01T16:34:31.639-05:00Beautiful!

I've pretty much stuck with "in the ditch", but I'm looking forward to learning from you!<br />=-)Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18290498016642859265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-47198633519784308412009-11-01T16:29:27.154-05:002009-11-01T16:29:27.154-05:00Excellent idea to take some regular time off, Leah...Excellent idea to take some regular time off, Leah. I was wondering how you were able to do all this to consistently--like Wonder Woman! I'm glad to see that you are taking care of yourself. :-)<br /><br />And even better idea to post ideas on how to USE the designs. Yours is my favorite blog at the moment. I can't wait to see what you come up with next! That certainly doesn't mean you'll be letting us in blogland down if you take a weekend off.Michele Matucheskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12162457608075358487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7302142022228564326.post-60329094810584025142009-11-01T15:48:47.213-05:002009-11-01T15:48:47.213-05:00very nice...
