I live in Wisconsin and right now it's in the single digits and will get to below zero tonight! So quilts are a VERY good thing here! I have 8 grandchildren and another due in May. We leave here soon and go to Florida for 4 months and believe it or not that is where I have learned to quilt with a small group of ladies. This is just my third year and I have made 2 queen-sized quilts and a twin memory quilt for my first graduated grand-daughter.
