Where do you find someone to test your patterns and do you pay them or barter for fabrics/kits, etc?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07640053050126318805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339722470418175310.post-74080832068839896982016-02-10T23:21:43.316-05:002016-02-10T23:21:43.316-05:00I'm really enjoying these discussions.... am j...I'm really enjoying these discussions.... am just a little behind in reading them :-) Thank you for your insights!!!Raewynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11123089629481933099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339722470418175310.post-73229254984992781612016-02-06T21:27:30.921-05:002016-02-06T21:27:30.921-05:00This has been my favorite post so far!

I like what Amy said about doing what works for you - I also have kids and little time, so if I designed a pattern, it would have to be "worth it." And I love what Yvonne and Anne said about pattern extras, and Christa about uniformity within her brand. Excellent!Sarah @ Berry Barn Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02743705520530389908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339722470418175310.post-69996598885854163282016-02-06T10:56:43.990-05:002016-02-06T10:56:43.990-05:00This is a great addition to the previous post and ...This is a great addition to the previous post and mirrors my own opinion. And I love the idea of having a coloring sheet available. That's just so useful and probably not that difficult to include. <br /><br />Might there even be an option for a digital (jpeg?) download option to color it in on the computer? Just thinking out loud... Really have experienced different pattern qualities so far and this is inspiring!

Oh I see that Jennifer is also asking the same sort of thing.

But do you typically take the quilter through the whole process of quilt top assembly, basting, quilting, and binding? I mean, are these steps detailed or summed up with Layer, baste, quilt and bind?

A question popped into my head about things like the general information that is the front or back of books/patterns - and this may be addressed later. Do you write your own instructions for binding (for instance)? If this is to be addressed in the series later, no need to answer. If I don't write it when I think it, the question sometimes disappears into thin air.Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11621591443896350515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6339722470418175310.post-5656029885677446782016-02-03T09:32:24.757-05:002016-02-03T09:32:24.757-05:00Great information !
