There's a new quilter in Oregon!

Hi everyone! I am a brand new quilter! In fact, I am a brand new sewer! My sister ,the Buslady, introduced me to this wonderful new hobby. She says I am a quick study. I lost my mother May 20th to cancer and I wanted to make quilts out of her clothes as a memorial - one for dad, one for my sister and one for each of the 4 grandkids. We did it! I flew to Michigan and we made 6 quilts in 4 days. The 7th one is mine and my sister is making that one herself and will send it to me. I am heading back to Oregon tonight, with a list.... sewing machine, sidewinder, sissors, material, patterns needles, thread - lots of thread....
You can sleep when your dead, lets quilt!

Welcome to the Board from Southern California! Boy, I'm thrilled you sound like you really caught the quilting bug!! I'm afraid there is no cure, just loads of enjoyment, pricked fingers, and a well-used seam ripper, which, BTW, I didn't see on your list!! LOL. Happy fabric fondling and be sure to post here what you make!! Sounds like you have a really special sister!!
