Hello All,
I am just learning to quilt and planning on making a quilt for each of my great grandchildren.
I never thought I would want to SEW! but I have fallen in love with quilting and given up knitting and braiding rugs, My husband and I have been in Arizona for seven years. We still miss Maine - but no so much in the winter. I have been reading this board for several weeks and find it very helpful. Thank you all. Bj
