I made some half square triangles and put them together and I also made a hexagon flower...you know, like the Grandmother's Flower Garden. I love hand work and someone had given me a little kit. I decided now was the time! I can hardly wait for tomorrow to do more!

Congratulations. I don't know if anyone told you or not yet, but I think you have to get a cat now. I'm new also but I already had the cats. Gabrielle

Gabrielle is correct. At least one cat (may be substituted by at least one dog) is a basic requirement to become a quilter. How would you get your quilts inspected, and where would you get the animal hair for the quilt if you didn't meet this requirement?

Hahah! I have cats, but they are not the lap friendly kind. They are more the "you have a job to do outside" kind.
