I just joined the forum even though I have been reading your postings for about 2 weeks. I have never made a quilt even though years ago I quilted with some ladies from church who were "pros". I wasn't much good at hand quilting, but really enjoyed the fellowship of the quilting bees. My sewing machine is not in working condition but I have hinted for a new one for Christmas. If I get one, I want to piece a quilt and machine quilt it. I will need plenty of help, especially how to get started. I will post that question later, when I get ready to start. I am a retired public school teacher/librarian from Mississippi. I have 3 sons, 3 beautiful daughters in law and 8 wonderful grandchildren. I enjoy reading your posts and look forward to many more conversations with you all.

Welcome from NM. Am a retired school teacher from Texas and my classroom was always across the hall from the library, very convenient. The librarians were wonderful and quite often life savers for the students.
