Guess I should add that I've been an avid quilter sinc my son was 6 mos old. That's when I took a class on strip piecing at a LQS. Now I'm hooked! Before the class I started piecing a 9 patch sampler by hand b/c that's how Grandma taught me to quilt. She helped me make my first quilt, a 4 patch, when I was about 12. My next project is to quilt a mystery quilt for her.
