You should join a quilt quild, I have learned so much from the wonderful people in Mine. And go to a quilting retreat, where you can sew all day and see how other people are making their quilts. Good Day

yes, i belong to a quilting guild. last monday nite of the month meetings. but i keep my 10 mo old grandson mon's and tues's. that is down from every day. and by the time mon nite rolls around, i am just too exhausted to manage a 45 minute ride to a meeting to sit around for an hr and half. that's if, my husband hasn't inpromtu put me in the motor home to go on a trip. "Oh, we are just going to be gone for a week he says." and i come home 3 months later. :) or, did i wrestle the 75 lb dog to the vet that day. or did i do 6 hrs staining the 'new' long house i bought for a 'hobbie'. or was that the daythe day....... :) get the picture? soooo, i just hobby quilt. a friend that goes to craft shows and makes a fortune, says, 'you need to make them and sell them." yeh, sure, right. ;-)
