Thank you received: 51

Thanks, Robin. I freely admit, I'm trying to pick your brain because of a difficulty I had with some 3/16th to 3/8 in circles on my current project. Too late now, they are down, but a bit "fuzzy". I heard you say that you use Ricky Tims' Stable Stuff, but what did you use for a fusible?

I used old style Steam-a-Seam Lite, but I'm afraid it's just old. I now have Misty Fuse for future projects.

Are you willing to share your stitch width and length? Were your hand-dyes tightly woven?

suehenyon OFFLINE Posts: 1796 Thank you received: 51	Robin, are your applique pieces in the miniature turned-edge? I just looked at the interview again. Kudos to the photographer! I'm fascinated with the miniature applique and would like to know more about the process. I'm sure Revolution No. 9 will go on to receive great accolades, too!

Reetzbobeetz OFFLINE Posts: 4193 Thank you received: 209	Robin your winning quilt at Paducah this year was stunning. I have just been working on a mini-quilt and really appreciate how you quilted it too. It's difficult to get the scale right isn't it? As for Revolution No.9 - Beatles fan? It is simply splendid. The flow of the design, the colours, everything is just wonderful. I would really love to see some close up photos? Any chance?
