When you "click to enlarge," you can appreciate the precision of your machine quilting. And as Linda says, yes, "thinking green" is important for all of us and I'm so delighted to see that direction being taken now by several of our Mavens!Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01193658783135430973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728166793718979713.post-21035001226205418322013-09-15T13:30:46.602-04:002013-09-15T13:30:46.602-04:00THINK GREEN was probably the most important direct...THINK GREEN was probably the most important direction to go. Good for you.<br />I love to hand sew beads and stitches but for the first time my hand started cramping so I went to a store for a supportive glove. Haven't tried it out. Eager here to continue to applique. I love it every time you say Gatesville since Mother, as a child, had such good times there where her father was a minister....way back!Linda Hickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10622069411237073813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728166793718979713.post-10670723178711422702013-09-15T13:17:56.301-04:002013-09-15T13:17:56.301-04:00Such a soothing green quilt.
