What I have learned or been taught is via a co-worker and here on the board.

I started quilting the same month and year! I sort of skipped the newbie stage too, but not purposely. I tried making an attics window and when I showed it to my friend at the quilt shop she said, "Oh, I see you didn't use the easy method." HA! If I had known there was an easier method, I would've used it, lol.

Or am I one that is 'stuck in the middle"?
