Hi! I am new and a real beginner!
#1
I am a working mom and have always wanted to sew and quilt. I love most types of crafts and do a lot of home redesign and staging. I have never learned to sew and make clothes, but I know that I can enjoy quilting. Last year, I made curtains for my den and they turned out great! I know two ladies who have been quilting all their lives and have been encouraging me to just get started. So I have! I have supplies and a simple pattern as well as a "how to" book. I have also shopped for fabrics and have several ideas. The shopping for fabrics has been really fun! Talk about creativity!
So, I am looking forward to joining in on your fun and getting to know a mentor or two who can help me out. My biggest issue is having time, but I will find a way to work this into my schedule.
Thanks for listening!

Welcome! I started out just the same way. I was an Army wife and I sewed my curtains and stuff where ever we moved then I got to Kansas and ran into some ladies with a quilt and it's been six years and I love it. I still consider myself a beginner. I will say that I joined my local quilt guild and they were scary at first but took me under their wings and showed me how to become a quilter and I haven't looked back. Enjoy what you do and you will be much happier. Christina

Thanks! And you are right....sometimes we just have to dive in and go for it! I have been cautious to get started because of the time factor, but if I don't start somewhere it won't happen!
So thanks for the encouragement!
So thanks for the encouragement!
