I started making my 1st quilt about 20 years ago, took a class at a LQS (Eleanor Burns quilt in a day, Lovers Knot lap quilt) and got the top done in class on a Saturday, a few weeks later the teacher that had taught the class was killed in bad auto accident
I was never able to find anyone to help me finish it so last fall, I got it back out and stitching in the ditch now and hope to get it finished soon
last December joined a quilting guild and this year joined another guild
I am now having lots of fun with my new quilting friends and some of us meet weekly for a sew day
I have learned:
1. paper piecing
2. disappearing 9 patch (top is done)
3. hexagons (by hand and covered a cute pincushion)
4. made a reversible table runner
5. made a tube quilt table runner and entered it in a quilt show May 2010
6. John Deere placemats, potholders and coasters
and some small projects
