Your storu was wonderfu. i learned to sewin 4H brfore the age to join. My granmother made quilts at the farm next doo. I remember at a young age playing under the quilting frame. I also remember that after the ladies left if the stitches weren't up to her standards she would wripe them out. I made alot of my clothes as a tennager. My other grandmother came to live with us when I started High scool. She was a professional seamtress.I continued to sew thru 20-30's. I took a class at my church and borrowed some books from the teacher and I have been hooked ever since. That was back in 1983. I have vision problems now so it is hard to match points. I am into crazy quilting now and also enjoy applique.I guess I was taught to sew it right the first time or ripe it out. So I do some ripping. Genny
