Hi, my name is Virginia Smith and I use GinnyK as my "creative" name. I live on a mountain top in the Ozark National Forest between Ft. Smith and Fayetteville, which is in the NE corner of Arkansas.
I started quilting this past year and have completed two pieced bed quilts and have the top finished for a queen. It is all paper pieced stars on a black background. It is for my grandson who is a stage lighting tech. I use Carol Doak's paper piecing method, and have found it to be my favorite.
I drove a big-truck with my husband for 7 years, and during that time I saw the entire US and did a lot of counted cross stitch. I am retired now.
My biggest quilting challenge is keeping the backing smooth during the quilting pricess. I am considering a quilt frame. Any advice?
Thanks and nice to meet you. :D
