Sweetheart I can relate to you and most of these ladies. I am a new beginner quilter. I have made nothing yet but I have learned a lot. I was introduced to the senior center here in Oregon and this is where Iam learning to quilt and make quilts. I was started with a quilt pattern block to learn to quilt. It has taken me at least 2 months to catch on how to quilt.
I have been buying small amounts of material or fabric and collecting fabric's brought in to the senior center and shared around. Iam so very thankful for the ladies at the Tigard Oregon Senior Center who has taken me under their wings and taught me a craft I wanted to learn. I will get to the quilt making process some day soon.
I am retired and have minor health issue's like tirdeness that makes me sleep a lot some
times but I will get there.
I have a bedroom upstairs in my daughter's house because she doesn't like me to sleep in my craft room down stairs but I have a craft room and a couch, table sewing machine. TV and computer and let me tell you I could live in that room. Because when I get an idea going all I have to do is get up and pick out what I want to do and I am a crocheter to.
I love this board because you all sound and treat every one just like my quilting ladies treat each other in our senior group. Also Iam addicted to my computer and patterns and all kids of crafts and quilting blogs.
