My Mom taught me to sew when I was 10 or so, was my 4-H Leader all thru jr & sr high & continued teaching me more thru my 4-H projects. Fast forward 30 years to 2007 when I "inherited" the boxes of fabric scraps she had saved from our clothes making. She had scraps for my 2 brothers & myself, intending to make quilts for each of us. Upon her passing, I decided I would learn how to quilt so that I could make them as her legacy. So, I took a Quilting 101 class Sept 2009 at my LQS and this summer I am finally feeling confidant enough to tackle the scrap boxes. I know that as I piece them together, using Mom's vintage Singer 403, she will be right there with me just like the old days, every stitch of the way.
