    I'm still working on the PP tutes, but will try the other method after I figure out these.

    (I can't tell you how far out of my comfort zone this is!!)
    Big (((hugs))) for taking it on and hopefully you will pull some of us out of our comfort zones along with you :wink:

      Margo, just as you have to hold us by the hand and cheer us on with our quilting, we can assure you that your demos will be awesome! You are so organized and so logical in your approach, that the resulting video is sure to be just what we need.

        Thank you for your confidence! In the meantime, you might want to see a real pro do this! Check out Sue Garman's paper piecing tutorial for the 2009 BOM "Stars For A New Day". learn/classrooms/

              Just a short note to Margo and Annis and the rest of you. I have finally got back to my computer and this website. Thanks all so much for the tips. I have been under the weather with a cold and sinus bug and not feeling up to sewing at all. I really wanted to work on it this weekend and post pictures but it was not meant to be. As soon as I'm able to I certainly will.

                      UPDATE! I have sent 2 (of 4) videos to John for Paper Piecing, but they need to be edited. Mary Kay usually does that but she has been ill so I don't know when it will get done. I will try to get the other two done in the next few days, then will tackle the method described in the instructions.

                      Thanks so much for your encouragement and I hope they don't disappoint! ops:

                                I could but I don't think Margo needs much in the way of improving.
