Head on over a take a look, there are already a number of familiar TQS guests, Laura Nownes, Barbara Olson, and Laura Wasilowski, to name just a few, with their patterns already online and ready to be downloaded.
But the great thing about the site is that you don't have to be a famous quiltmaker to set up shop.
Anyone can do it and so can you!
