It can become a passion and obsession. Quilting has added color and comfort to my life.
I taught myself to quilt way back in the 60s-- no books, no quilt shops, no teachers, no internet. I went to museums and looked at antique quilts there. And I used directions in the then new Quilters Newsletter.
This board and the internet will be a whole wealth of knowledge and support. Welcome to the board and good luck to you on this new journey.
