I had no idea and, Dave, you saw my first pitiful try on that quilt block I sent you. I used limp paper, a soft brush and an incorrect baren. And I think I got the paper too wet to begin with. I will keep trying, and thanks to all the help I'm getting from the Baren, I'm en- couraged to try something I once was just curious about but too overwhelmed to consider. ------------------------------ From: Ray Esposito Date: Tue, 21 Apr 1998 16:03:54 -0400 Subject: [Baren 663] Re: Baren Digest V3 #133 Gayle wrote: >April and Dave, I thank you for such good descriptions of >the process of inking the block. Don't feel bad AT ALL. I am about to post the second part of my Newbie Journal and believe me....when you read about MY misadventures and mistakes, you will feel reallll good. Actually, reading the journal and knowing I am not giving up should give you all the encouragment you need. Hang in there.
