There are so many beautiful quilts and patterns. I guess whatever I'm working on is my favorite at the moment. Then I see people post their quilts here and have another new favorite :) My 1st attempts at quilting were in the late 70's with no quilter to show me the ropes so I plugged through. I hand pieced tops and didn't know how to quilt them. I'm self taught. I bought my 1st quilt magazine in 1984 and still have it :-P I didn't make my first machine pieced quilt until 1999! I enjoy hand quilting but it's been a while since I've hand quilted a quilt. I worked in a LQS that has since gone out of business and loved it. I had fun learning from the ladies I worked with. Like most quilters I've given away most of my quilts or made them for charity.
