I've seen a few Elizabeth Hartman patterns online, and they always look great when they are finished. I think there's a sea creatures one, and a woodland creatures one as well. Would love to give one of these a go one day :D

I'm following this with great interest!

Hi @Lottie yes @Iminei is right ( although flattering me by using the word "expert" ) I have made several Elizabeth Hartman quilts......the forest one, the sea one, the plant one and the dog one..
They're blo*dy fiddly to measure and cut....lots of tiny pieces, but they sew together easily and well.
The biggest tip I can give anyone is to keep all the tiny pieces for each block together and separate from anything else. She says to cut everything  out first but I would say to cut and sew each block separately. Much easier to keep on track that way.
Triumph of hope over experience :D

Finally! Someone agrees with me !!

Can you post some pics of your creations please @Lowena  ??

Amazing work, I am in awe at the patience and perseverance that goes into something this complex  :perfect10:
As it neared the top of the grade, it went more slowly. However, it still kept saying, "I—think—I—can, I—think—I—can." It reached the top by drawing on bravery and then went on down the grade, congratulating itself by saying, "I thought I could,  I thought I could."
