Who taught you how to quilt?

What pattern was the first quilt you made?

Do you still have your 1st quilt?

Which of your quilts is your favorite and why?

What do you do with the quilts you make?

What is the oldest quilt in your collection?

Do you belong to a guild, or attend workshops?

Have you ever entered a quilt in a quilt-show or fair?

Have you encouraged others to try quilting?

Why do you quilt?
I am self taught. My Grama Fran was my inspiration, still is, even though she has been gone for over 30 years.
I made up the pattern with four patch.
I still have the quilt.
My favorite quilt, is always the last one I made, because I am still so attached to it.
I keep some...but give most of them to family and friends.
My baby quilt is the oldest...43 years old. Every child in my family has slept on or under it.
No guilds, I have never been to a workshop...a little intimidated.
Never entered one in a show/fair.
Yes, I encourage anyone that will listen!
So many reasons!! to make it simple...it makes me feel good!
