As a child I watched my mom and her quilting bee sew quilts monthly, but she never taught me how to sew. About a year ago I was going through some of my mom's things and discovered a stash of quilt blocks. I was going to throw them out and decided at the last second to try making a quilt. So I started in blindly (none of the blocks were the same size) and ended up making a king size quilt (by hand) for my son. I was hooked and began taking quilting classes and am still at it. So far I've made 6 quilts and am totally obsessed!
