As was previously questioned, "what is your husband's background? art, quilting, sewing, - his mother, grandmother?

Beautiful style.
Believe it or not, he has degree in engineering and sold insurance for many years. Like the old song says, "there's no one with endurance, like the man who sells insurance"!

All his sewing skills he learned from me, although I would never bother with pieces that small. I think 1" square would be my minimum.

He likes working on a treadle as it doesn't interfere with the TV.


Sorry for all these posts, but he wanted me to answer the questions people had.

Thank you all for your wonderful comments, he really enjoys reading them.
