I hate a post without pictures so this is a peek of the quilt I have just started. I doubt that I will get too far until after the holidays. It will be my first solids quilt (provided you call the Heath texture, as I do, and not a pattern).

The winner of the Sew Fresh Fabrics Daiwabo fabric giveaway is lucky #19, Pippablue!

What a fab giveaway! My worst sewing fear is FMQ. I can never seem to get even stitches and I'm always afraid I'll ruin a quilt if I try it!
I enjoyed reading all of your comments. It seems that zippers, curves and free motion quilting are terrifying to many of you followed closely by simply cutting or using your fabric, buttonholes, and the reception of things that you have made. I had to say that I felt sad when I read that people were worried that their work wasn't good enough or that people wouldn't like things that they made as gifts. I think handmade gifts are such treasures. I hope you will not stop making them!
Fabulous color combination - love!
