Sylvia Priest – webmaster and quilter wrote a new post, Freezer Paper … Does it help? 8 years, 4 months ago
I’d heard of freezer paper (FP) but didn’t quite know how to use it so I was a little perplexed as where to start.
The box gave me some examples of how I could use it for appliqué and a web search brought up a…

I use it for a number of different things but not piecing.

Thank you for your straightforward explanation, and visuals, on using freezer paper. I’m now tempted to redo one of Carol Munroe’s house blocks again

Love it Carol, we all need a challenge in life.
8 years, 4 months ago
A Quilter never runs out of ideas, just the time to follow them through unfortunately.
8 years, 4 months ago
Absolutely, and it’s nice to do a fun project occasionally.
8 years, 4 months ago
What a great idea – I have so many ideas floating around in my head and noted down already, this one may have to wait until next year, but I can think of a few people who I’ll challenge to join me!

My reply has ended up further down the page somehow or other, Christine, I hope you find someone to join in the fun with you.

Wow! That’s such a great idea, and I love your hallhanging, those birds really have character.

Thanks Alison, they were fun to make, and it’s nice to do some decorative stitching occasionally.

Wow these are lovely and I really like the idea of a challenge. I think I might do this for a few of my friends although it will not be from any shows. It will have to be what we have on hand. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Denise, I’m sure you could adapt it quite easily to do with your friends, and using what you all have on hand could be a challenge in itself if you all have very different tastes. I’d love to see what you make if you get around to it.

Love this idea for a challenge however, I’m always worried that I am not creative enough. Perhaps this could be new UKQU alternative challenge to the Mini Quilt?

Something to think about Deborah.
