Who taught you how to quilt? Took a class, I could not follow the books this was 1991 or so.

What pattern was the first quilt you made? Rail fence

Do you still have your 1st quilt? Yes, on the guest bed right now.

Which of your quilts is your favorite and why? I am working on a hunter's star with 30's fabric, almost done. Currently my favorite.

What do you do with the quilts you make? I am slow so there is always someone in line.

What is the oldest quilt in your collection? The rail fence, the only queen size I will ever quilt by hand.

Do you belong to a guild, or attend workshops? Yes to both, if I had more money I would attend more workshops.

Have you ever entered a quilt in a quilt-show or fair? Not yet.

Have you encouraged others to try quilting? Of course.

Why do you quilt?
Due to health issues I no longer am able to paint or do beading. I must have a creative outlet or I feel stiffled.

I love this board.

Blessings to all,

Sharon
