My cousins all quilt and they invited my daughter and myself to make blocks for a family quilt. Ours were the strangest blocks of the group! I signed up for a class at the local college but it was all hand quilting. Meantime I saw a Quilt in a Day demo and was sold. I started with those and went on from there. Now I teach the quilting classes at the same college and have for 25 yrs. now.
