I just found you and signed up right away. I'm from the Ozarks in Missouri and have been quilting for more than 50 years. I learned to quilt from my great-grandmother and have been passionate about making and collecting quilts all my life. Since retiring two years ago I've had at least 4 or 5 quilts in the works at the same time. I love traditional patterns, but also love art quilts and frayed edge flannel quilts, which I love to make for new moms. My husband supports my addiction and he is in the process of converting our garage into a sewing studio. Mostly I think he would like me to move my "collection" out of the house!!!! I'm looking forward to being part of your group.
