I have just registered to the board but I have been lurking here for a couple of months. I really like to read all of the interesting answers to questions and look at the pictures of quilts. I finally decided I needed to chime in now and then. I have been sewing for years and quilting for the last 12 years. It all started with my love of beautiful fabrics and I needed something to do with all the fabric I was collecting besides small projects.
