Hello, everyone, I'm new here and new to quilting.
I am about to embark upon my first real quilt. I did make a "blue jean" quilt once, but the one I am attempting to do now is very much more detailed. I am looking for any advice, information that I can find. I am reading multiple articles on and off the net. Have bought several first time quilting books. Here is a link to the quilt I am going to do. Scroll down, it's about half way down the page. I love it. It looks like a sampler and has houses in it. I am crazy about "houses". It is a strip a month club, so it will take me at least a year to get the top done. It looks difficult, but with it being a slow project, I will have plenty of time to work on each strip individually, hoping to get it right. What do you all think? http://thegoldenthimble.com/clubhouse.html |
That is a cool site. The quilt you are attempting looks hard, but fun. Thanks for sharing. I live in Corpus Christi TX. I teach music 2 days a week so I don't get to quilt often, but I love thinking about it and looking and reading this site. Enjoy.

While there I looked in the archives, I like some of the blocks for the 2006
I love looking at quilts and patterns, and welcome welcome |
Thanks to you guys for replying!
This is a cool message board. I feel like this will be a good place to get questions answered. I'm going to start on the quilt tomorrow. |
Hi, I like the quilt and that's a really great site. I hope you'll post pictures when your quilt is finished.

I'll try!!
That will be a good excuse for me to try to figure out that new digital camera I bought. But I've seen some quilts that some of these people on this site make....I don't think I will be able to hold a candle to theirs. |
Welcome to the Quilting Board Cathy and thanks for sharing the awesome web address. I think I may join you in making this quilt too. What fun!
|
That would be great!
I emailed the lady who designed the quilt and asked for her permission to enter the quilt in the county fair in the fall of 2008, when I get it finished! She gave me her permission!! |
That looks like a really nice quilt. Welcome to the board...when we get serious we can have a nice time. When we are silly, it's even better. I'm sure you'll like the info you find here.
