You lucky lady. She is one of my three all-time favorite applique quilt makers (along with Sue Garman and Pearl Pereira). :) I use her Perfect Circles *all* *the* *time* for berries and such on my appliques, and I'm maybe 1/3 through the applique work on her Fiesta Mexico quilt. I was just thinking this morning that I'll pull that one back out after the next Octopus Garden block gets finished!Lynettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10424861624240818479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3816121512164080677.post-32738159890791847562019-07-17T17:39:51.559-04:002019-07-17T17:39:51.559-04:00Befriending other quilters is such an amazing expe...Befriending other quilters is such an amazing experience.

But I definitely remember picking her up from the airport and helping her woman-handle her suitcases to my car. And, I love that you have found that quilt guild membership is wonderful. I actually belong to 3 from the last few places we've lived. I still participate in the two farthest away but not as often as I'd like to. But, oh the good times, great education and fabulous quilts I've seen because of those memberships. A good guid is so worthwhile. I hope you continue to enjoy yourself. And, wow. Who would have thought a book would be so expensive even if it is out of print. Have a great quilty week.

I have been a member of my local Guild for 20 years and the joy and new friendships it has given me are too many to count. And I love all the educational workshops it offers also.

I'm so glad that your quilt guild is working for you - I had so hoped to find something like that in my area and had no luck what so ever I do envy you that. I have Karen's ovals and circles - I have had the circles for years and years and love them - I haven't really used the ovals much and didn't know she had stems. I have the little scissors but really didn't like them as much as others that I have but that is just me I'm sure. I think I would like your guild a lot more than I did the one I tried!Karen - Quilts...etc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07293429657903986492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3816121512164080677.post-40360976978472491082019-07-14T07:50:17.370-04:002019-07-14T07:50:17.370-04:00So glad you found the pattern!

Inspiration and education to help you be a better quilter and perhaps more efficient thus quicker in building your masterpieces. It looks like you had such fun.
