How to make a perfect square

I know how George Lucas felt when he made his first movie - 'will people watch it?', 'can they understand it?', "will they like it?'. Well my first video attempt for my Baby Quilt Patterns blog maybe out of this world(sorry!) but that is where the comparison with George Lucas's films ends. 
However, the production - the photographs, the action, the voice and putting it all together is all my own work.(the music is courtesy of itunes) I wanted to share it with anyone who might be interested if only to say that  if I can do this then you can too. Any comments (provided they are all nice) would be a bonus. I hope you enjoy it.

It is never too late..

Whilst looking for tips and information for my blog I came across this article. What a nice surprise for the daughter and I bet mum really enjoyed the look on her daughter's face. 

 
“I never got around to doing it,” Tomlinson says, softly. “You know how we are when we’re young …”

 

I hope you like the article too.

Squaring up your fabric

For enthusiasts who have started to Learn To Quilt and maybe those of us who have trouble getting their grain of fabric straight and as a result end up with a "quilt on the bias", the following video should help. 

There are more useful and interesting tips being demonstrated by Aimee Griffin on the video which is part of a series.
I hope you like it.
