Me Too! :-)
My mum is an amazing sewer, she does clothes and all sorts. But she never had the patience to teach me, and I never really had an interest.
Until I discovered quilting not quite two years ago. It's the patterns that attract me, especially the clever geometric ones. I made my first and was hooked. I've done a couple of classes, but the majority I've learned from searching online, and I've picked up a lot of hints to polish my work by watching re-runs of Simply Quilts.
I have one friend who quilts, she's much older than me and isn't as obsessed as I am.
