Hi, folks...I am a Nanny of three, mother of two, and expecting a new grandchild in Jan. '08.. Being a Nanny has inspired me to attempt to teach myself how to quilt. My grandmother quilted, but passed away before I ever married. My Mother was an accomplished seamstress, and did teach me to sew clothing, however quilting was never her thing. I love quilts, and am now not working, and have been disabled for about 3 years, and love to craft. I have started a quilt for my only granddaughter, and will probably have alot of questions for you all. I was so excited when I found this site. I have been visiting it for quite awhile now, but just today got the nerve to join in. Hope I don't worry anyone too much. Oh yes, I am from Ewing, Ky. Looking forward to making new friends and learning the wonderful art of quilting. ;) ;)
