Good evening everyone - I've been lurking for awhile now - love the most recent BOM pics - and have always wanted to PP - so figured I'd sign up and see what I can learn. I've only been quilting about 8 years - and not doing as much as I'd like - seeing as I have 4 kids at home :D I homeschool 3 of them - and the youngest (4yo) goes to school. While he's gone - thats my time to quilt if everything else is done.

Here are some pics of some of the quilts I've completed -

this one is a Joann BOM



here is a purple wallhanging I whipped up over a weekend for a friend whose son died (she loves purple)



my youngest daughter wanted a red heart quilt - so I made her this



and these are the joys of my life that keep me from my sewing machine



looking forward to getting to know you all better !

A great big welcome to you Jerzydeb! You're a very talented quiltmaker and you have four adorable kids!! I'm so glad you've joined. I just know you'll have lots to share with us.

I homeschooled three of my four so I know what you mean. I didn't get a lot of quilting done those early years, but now it seems I have too much time on my hands sometimes. LOL I try to use it wisely though.

Hope you enjoy the site. :)

Hello jerzydeb,

Glad you joined in. Your quilts are lovely! I'm amazed that you find any time with 3 kids! Looking forward to seeing more of your quilts when you find time. My kids are all grown, however my daughter, grandaughter & niece live at home with my husband & I so it can be tricky to find the tme to sit & quilt. Thanks for sharing!

Pam
