I moved from Toledo apx Jan 1982, so my memory is really being put to the test but this picture resembles the Mary Ann I knew back then.

I have seen other scherenschnitte paper since, at craft stores like Michaels or at scrapbooking storesUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13513170620495083154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6197147697265627399.post-8168278794755481482009-05-18T18:58:00.000-04:002009-05-18T18:58:00.000-04:00Mary Kay,

Here's hoping the book sells well enough so that C&T will let me do one.<br /><br />In the meantime, I've started to teach the technique here in Georgia, and if all goes well I'll try to take my show on the road to quilt guilds in other states.

It would be so cool to get to see this in action. Your instructions are fine, but I found myself wishing I could see somebody doing this in person! This technique is a real game-changer for foundation piecers everywhere!
