at age 12 Lived in Germany as my father was in the Army and to keep us girls busy we were taught to quilt a baby size quilt, I don't remember the prize, but only two finished and I did not win. threads long and too many notes, thus I swore some day I be a real quilter that was 56 yrs ago,boy time flies, many of times I have turned to quilting and knitting to help me in times which were rough, thanks to those who showed me the way keep fingers busy
