Who taught you how to quilt? Me! Mostly from books and trial and error

What pattern was the first quilt you made? a 9-patch baby quilt for #2 (of 7)

Do you still have your 1st quilt? Yep, it was used by all the babies and now resided in "Mom's Baby Memorabilia" box

Which of your quilts is your favorite and why? usually the one I'm currently working on

What do you do with the quilts you make? Mostly made baby quilts for my own, and they were used and loved for years, I've also given quilts to charity. Now I'm making quilts for my grand daughter. I'd like to tart selling some

What is the oldest quilt in your collection? I have 2 quilts from I think the 30's that were in my Grandma's things. I don't know who made them. I also have a box of 9-patch squares from the 40's that my GGma made.

Do you belong to a guild, or attend workshops? Nope - no time!

Have you ever entered a quilt in a quilt-show or fair? no

Have you encouraged others to try quilting? yes, but no success so far!

Why do you quilt? I love the colors and feel of cotton, and this is one of my creative outlets to keep this single homeschooling mom-of-7 sane! I get a thrill when I open my quilting fabrics drawer and see all those yummy fabrics!
