 WG> Hello quilters,
 WG> I have never quilted before.  I don't want to do a full blanket, but
 WG> just a small one that you hang on the wall.
Hi Wanda,
I did a similar project when I picked up quilting recently.  I hadn't
made a quilt in over 30 years (and then it was on the machine).  So I
made a small wall hanging (about 25" square).  Turned out that the
pattern I chose was definitely *not* for beginners, but I trucked
through anyway, and it turned out real nice. :-)
 (snip)
 WG> What do you think of this idea?  I'd like to make one each for the
 WG> 2 boys.  Another idea with this, is to transfer a photo of Chris
 WG> and Bobby and some of their friends pictures in different activities
 WG> as squares.
I think this is a wonderful idea and should mean a lot to each of the
boys.
 WG> Does this sound do-able to a non-quilter?  I'd really like to give
 WG> it a shot.  They would be like memory quilts for the boys.
If it were me, I surely would do it.  Just keep your pattern simple
and I don't see where you would have a problem at all.
 WG> I need some help here, some encouragement!  I'm a little chicken,
 WG> but desparately want to try it.  Thanks for any ideas and help.
Go for it!
