I love piecing quilts......not much for the cutting part....but wish i could machine quilt them....so far my efforts have been nothing but frustrating...thank goodness i can at least handquilt...lol we all have parts of the process we like better...if only i could afford to have them quilted....someday...meanwhile, i`ll keep piecing...lol enjoy playing with your fabric!!!!!

So what am I?

Fortunately my group I sew with has several people who don't like to cut, and absolutely love to find enough blocks in our orphan block box to put together and make a quilt.
And we have several long armers who do the quilting of the soldier quilts.

Over the last seveal years I've made several hundred 6" crumb blocks. I find it very relaxing but another person has collected all the small scraps from our group to use as stuffing for pet beds for shelters. So now I'm doing strips.
