Hello from sunny Indianapolis. Yes I am writing from Indianapolis and not Minneapolis, we are here with my oldest son for a soccer tournament. You are here for the Minnesota blog hop and today you get to meet Kari Carr and learn about her company New Leaf Stitches. Kari is from Fergus Falls and one of her products is a seam guide for the bed of your machine, called Clearly Perfect Angles. I use it and it is great for making half-square triangles and folded corners without having to draw lines on your squares. Kari shows you on her blog today, how to use it for flying geese. Go visit and check it out. I took this picture of Kari when we met in White Bear Lake for a little Designers day out and we made the cutest little notebooks.
I am getting lots of e-mails from you and I have to appologize for not getting to answering them while I am on the road. Many of you are asking where to get my products so I wanted to repeat the information I gave earlier.
On my website, you can find and extensive list of quilt shops that have carried my patterns, organized by state or country. If you don't have a quilt shop close by or prefer ordering online or through the phone, Roseann and Mary both carry my patterns (they are on this hop with me) and they would both be happy to ship them out to you.

If you already order from other online sources like the Fat Quarter Shop you can find my patterns there too.
I also wanted to remind you of the Flickr group I started, please join it and load photos of your finished projects there, we are already seeing some great versions of the Anyday Placemats on there. http://www.flickr.com/groups/gedesigns

I have the hardest time sewing a straight line even if I draw a line so I'm thinking this might be just the thing I need to get those flying geese to fly right! Thanks for another wonderful tip to help me in my quilting experience!
