Having the idea for the pattern? No sweat.
Writing up a rough draft? Easy peasy.
Pictures? Aw, I ship that off to my sister with the photo magic skills!
Testing a pattern? Woo-ee! I had no idea my proofreading skills had so declined! Thank you, thank you, thank you, to Liz from Spinning Star. If my pattern ever sells (if I ever finish it with all the, um, edits she's suggested), it will all be thanks to Liz. I'm so much a self-taught, book-taught, and internet-taught quilter that I just don't know how other people read patterns. I am still thinking about dividing up my pattern into two and including more variations, but for now, I am one more step closer (even if it will be longer) to having a quality pattern.
To all you geniuses who produce patterns at the drop of the hat, God bless you!

This is so true. I was reading a pattern for a bag last night and it was sending my head in a spin so I thought I'd just make a bag without a pattern. As I started cutting and planning etc, I suddenly realised how difficult writing a pattern for the bag I was doing would be!! Good luck my friend!! You'll be fine!
Gees thanks {blush}...
I like your table runner and it's a great design. I'm glad to help in the proofreading... now onto the sewing part!If only I can settle down on my fabric choices. I suspect that tablerunners will be a big part of my holiday presents this year!
