I love to collect needles, thread, rulers, patterns, books. I actually love to collect anything "quilting". I still have a lot to learn about quilting. I thought about taking some quilting classes but, after checking on the prices realized I can't afford to do that so I went looking on the internet and found this message board. I have learned so much by just reading the threads. I was a little shy about asking questions but, I am getting better about that.
