My first quilt was made up of twelve 15-inch squares that I hand-embroidered, and put together with blue fabric. That was about 20 years ago. Then I took a class at our LQS on the Log Cabin Quilt and learned strip piecing. About 40 quilts later, I still love quilting. My favorite thing about making a quilt is the hand quilting, it is so relaxing. My least favorite thing about quilting is picking out fabric.
