I love the fabrics you pick and the patterns you use, all of it. <BR/><BR/>I have been quilting for a while, but am mostly self-taught. I used your binding tutorial a couple weeks ago and it worked so much better than what I had always been doing. <BR/><BR/>So thank you so much for all the time you put into your quilts and your blog!
