Hope you enjoy cutting and sewing each and every bit!Ducks and Rabbitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15629994557069997376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473428269886970702.post-36139677568049847332010-06-05T10:08:15.353-05:002010-06-05T10:08:15.353-05:00I think that fabric is so much fun and whatever yo...I think that fabric is so much fun and whatever you do will look wonderful.<br /><br />I'm also one of the people that you've gotten hooked on hexies. I bought some templates and now I'm scrounging around in my stash. My girlfriend, who is not a quilter, jumped on board too. She's got a leg up on hers and is doing it all in batiks. The darned things are going to be addicting, I just know it!Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00792171420098351093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473428269886970702.post-67457807657681195512010-06-05T08:35:08.919-05:002010-06-05T08:35:08.919-05:00Very very cute little mini quilt.

I have a horde of it and I need to figure out what to make with it. But it has to be perfect. I would hate to sacrifice such beauty for something less than magnificent.<br /><br />On batting...have you tried "Quilters Dream Cotton Batting" I love it. I have been using the request weight and it is so thin and beautiful to hand quilt through. They also make a wool batting the I love for hand quilting, it has a loft similar to polyester. I would love to send you some if you want to give it a try. You can email me your address if you don't think that would be too wierd.<br /><br />Cheers!<br />Tiathe Campfollowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16342276701416619400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473428269886970702.post-85616499174337453662010-06-05T07:53:24.912-05:002010-06-05T07:53:24.912-05:00Hi there Melanie.

(though I certainly know how hard it is to cut into them!) thanks for linking to my FMF quilt too - I actually just took photos of another that I'll be posting next week!

I've been surfing most of the afternoon trying to figure out what to make with my Hope Valley and Katie Jump Rope fabrics! Those are some beauts you linked to! The wonky stars are cute! I really like Hobbs 80/20 for handquilting...just enough poly to make it easy and give a drape!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07118796155003273506noreply@blogger.com
