I'm Quilting with Convicts, a.k.a. Kathy. I run a large quilting progran for male inmates at a privately owned state prison in New Mexico. I will be posting information about the program elswhere. I have pictures and a complete description.

I love to paper piece and am trying to finish a Dear Jane quilt that I started in 1997. It's all hand pieced & appliqued. I'only have about 25 blocks left to go, and then the triangles that form the border.

I have really been enjoying all the interesting chat going on here. Does any one know about how many of us there are here?

Welcome to the board from Southern California!!!
We have a lot of people who have signed on as members but there arn't near that many who are actually active on the board.

Loved your story on your quilting with the men in prison!!!

:lol: I'm a Tulsa transplant. Born and raised in Orlando, FL, spent 3 years in Atlanta, 30 years in TN and the past 6 years here in Tulsa. DD is an executive producer at one of the tv stations in ABQ. She still has 1 1/2 years left on her contract and counting the days til she can move back to Knoxville! Such a small world! :lol:
