I loved to sew when in school. We always had quilts on our beds and because my room was so cold in the winter I had piles of quilts that left me feeling like I had wrestled all night long.
I always dreamed of quilting but was hesitant to dive in. After buying quilt books, tools and looking at hundreds of patterns I had to teach an unrelated course. One of the assignments was for the adult students to write out three personal golas - somwthing that they always wanted to do , but never did. I thought, although I am the teacher, I need to do this also. Quilting was one of my goasl and we were about to have a grandbaby. This was the first quilt that took me three days and turned out beautifully. What a creative adventure! I amazed myself and have been quiklting ever since ( 5 years).
