I've been playing with the bib pattern and had a blast finishing it to give to my DGD this weekend. I'd love to make another one...or five... but want to make sure it's the right size. So all you PP…Continue

Comment by MsDesigns on September 22, 2020 at 8:14am: I am a long time member of "Quilting With Us" (QWU). I used to give virtual workshops here. Like many others, I have ventured out as QWU became more quiet.

We are getting the warning that QWU is at risk of being disabled. I fear this is a sign that QWU will one day be no more.

It has become like family here and the thought of losing the friendships we have developed has giving me a sad heart. Like many dark clouds, there is a silver lining. When I ventured out, I created a quilters social network, much like QWU. I never mentioned it, for it was a conflict of interest. However, in this dark hour, it is time to let others know there is an alternative. It does not have to end here.

I would be honored for QWU members to join "Pattern Pastiche". If needed, we are more than happy to create a group for your new home.

Comment by Nancy/NC on April 22, 2013 at 8:06am: Nice to see some chat here again! I love paper piecing, just don't like a whole quilt with it, lol. DH designed a pp baby quilt for us once, told him never again, that was my quilt from He--! Turned out great, but took me from Father's Day to Labor Day, more working on it, than not, to get it done. So that was a lesson for both of us. But love doing pp blocks, then added them to the rest of a quilt, that isn't, lol...

Comment by Donna Nicholson on April 22, 2013 at 4:40am: Foundation/paper piecing is extremely accurate, as long as you sew on the lines. This is a great place to ask questions. I guarantee someone will know the answer.

Comment by Rebecca / CA on April 21, 2013 at 9:33pm: Donna,

Thanks for answer me. I just started foundation piecing, looking for a group where I could ask questions and get advise.

I took a class and realy enjoyed it. I liked that the points came out prefect, hope its not because it was my first time.

Comment by Donna Nicholson on April 19, 2013 at 11:08pm: Yes, Rebecca, but not real active. Please comment or ask questions.

Comment by Rebecca / CA on April 19, 2013 at 9:02pm: Is this group still going?

Comment by Maggie Boucher on March 31, 2013 at 8:48pm: Craftsy's has a carol dork class going on right now...if anybody is interested

Comment by Mdm on October 20, 2012 at 2:26pm: HI Teresa....thanks for your note...I meant when you find a pattern...anyones what size should you enlarge it? I find the small ones look very pieced lol you know what I mean.?

Comment by Teresa Taramasso on October 19, 2012 at 8:21pm: Mdm, "what is a good size to make my patterns...if they are only 4 inch square?" What do you mean? A four inch finished size block for me is pretty big. My computer software can make my blocks larger or smaller when needed.
