I like your rulers, too. I just found some new C-Thru rulers (the thin plastic one) after looking for a while; the little metal one looks wonderfully useful, I'll have to keep an eye out for that one, too. (More pictures of your quilts, please!) :DCaroline in NHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15012523159772803412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1738660161076439950.post-36424457814665316312010-08-08T09:01:54.684+01:002010-08-08T09:01:54.684+01:00oh I love the princess feather quilt, it is just b...oh I love the princess feather quilt, it is just beautiful and beautifully quilted.<br />What a wonderful tip for echo quilting, I NEVER would have though of that. I have been wanting to buy a floor frame for a long time.<br />I love to hand quilt and have been told its hard to learn to quilt in different directions did it take you a long time to learn?<br />I can see myself sitting for 15 minutes here and there taking a few more stitches and getting a top finished in no time since it is all set up.<br />what kind of frame do you have?<br />thanks<br />Kathieantique quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15379983489980682690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1738660161076439950.post-39040484372432418322010-08-08T03:20:51.625+01:002010-08-08T03:20:51.625+01:00Breath taking quilting!
