Recently moved back to Maine after living in Calif for 37 years. I took quilting in Home Economics in my high school years 1978-1980 and have fallen in love all over again this past winter. Wow... what a difference 30 years makes... fascinated with fabric cutters and mats compared to pinning pattern pieces and cutting with ordinary scissors from years past. Just finished my first quilt in 30 years, crafting a King size quilt for my mother just in the knick of time for Christmas and have sewn two more quilt tops in the past month.... happy to say "I'm hooked."
