Hello,

Just wanted to introduce myself.

I enjoy the machine piecing part of quilting but will find someone else to do the hand or machine quilting. Can't seem to get the hang of either.

A few things about me:
-I am a teacher (a recent career change).
-Hubby and I are empty nesters.
-I look forward to rainy days as well as "snow" days when I can spend time at the sewing machine.
-I have fabric that I feel is too beautiful to cut so I just admire it.

I am glad I found this forum that looks like it is very active. I am looking forward to learning much from the postings and will try to respond when I feel I have some knowledge on the subject.

Welcome from Western PA. I also have trouble with machine quilting and I'm trying out the suggestions from this board. People on here are very helpful--ask anything.
