    Step by step pictures.

    OK, QUILTERS! This is for anyone who wants to try needlturn applique and is looking for a place for absolute BASIC info.
    Like Ricky pointed out, this is NOT the only way to do it, and may not even be the best way, but it's what works for me.
    I took the pictures as I was making my blocks, and have finally gotten captions written that explain what I'm doing, and why.
    If you decide you like doing it, you may want to get some of the wonderful books that are available, written by people who likely have lots more knowledge about the subject than I do!
    Anyway...I hope this helps some beginners get started.
    ENJOY THE PROCESS!

      Sorry, Florence! Apparently the link won't always work from the forum page. Please try it again from my profile page and let me know if you get to it.
      If not, send me an e-mail and I'll send it to you directly.
      Thanks!!!!

                  I don't know why it works for some but not others....
                  I've made the albums "private", thinking you could link from the forum and/or my profile, but I think I'm going to have to go "public" with it.
                  We will get the kinks out....
                  TRUST ME....Needleturn is easier than figuring out this web stuff!!!

                    Margo,

                    I don't see them either. Just as everyone else has said, It says you have not uploaded any pictures or albums.

                    Heather



                    *Of course after I type this, I check it again, and it works.
                    Thanks a ton Margo

                    hugs
