yesterday I browsed the photos of quilts. there were so many with no comments on them. We all need to encourage everyone by at least letting each other know, we saw your effort and you get at least an E for effort. a like takes very little time. A pat on the back is so encouraging makes you want to start another project. Makes you feel good and makes you know others are interested.And you are learning. Each quilt we make takes a lot of time planning and effort to finish.and aren't we all…

Hood than usually so she went skiing and fell and broke her arm. she is just out of her cast. but anxious to do the quilt. What a hated it by the time I finished it. But I have one ahead it is a scrappy…
ContinueDorothy the only other picture I will show you is a hanky that I bead embroidered! I originally only wanted to do the centre R with a tiny heart on the end. However, after I finished the piece it become apparent that I needed to do more on the outer section of the hanky. It will eventually be framed. Hope you enjoy these few pictures. I will send another letter to you with picture of completed works. Bye for now Julie Beard.migh
Hi Dorothy, Here is another of the blocks I was trying to show you. You can quite clearly see on the background fabric little gum nut babies. The characters are varied as May Gibbs tell her famous Australian stories.
Thank you for the friend request! I am tickled that you would want me. I am sorry about how long it took to respond. I didn't notice the request for a while. I admire your work so muc! You are a master applique' artist.
Hi Dorothy, I haven't visited here for a long time and just saw your friend request. Nice to know you.
Hi Dorothy, just sent you a note my friend from a land down under!!!! Wanted to let you know that I took a look at your pictures of your quilts. They are all absolutely amazing and so much better than mine but I must admit I think you have been quilting a lot longer than me. I think I would be a baby in your eyes and I consider you an expert/professional quilter!!!!!!
I feel somewhat thrilled at your acknowledge of my quilt making skills. I can't thank you enough for making me feel good today with your words of encouragement. Now I only wish I could say something that will make you feel good and take some of your stresses away for a while. All I think I can say is that I will be praying for you and I will write to you on a more regualr basis from now.
Well it's quite early in the morning and I have not gone to bed yet as I'm not tired and I wanted to leave this litte note also. So I going to head off back to making a few more half inch hexies before I go to bed. Bye until next Julie Beard.
