No one in our family did anything with quilting or crafting, I am the only one. I started as I remember in school elementary, I did a show with pupets I made and A box turned into a stage with curtains. I drew scence for different parts of france and the puppets talked about france, capital the effil tower . I made furntire I cover in fabric . From there as I got older I did craft shows, from wood to embroidery, to fabric. Now at the age of 63 I have decided to quilt and I have been doing it for a short time and really love it. As well as this site with great quilters to help me out.
