Hi Fabraholic. I too joined after seeing the Christmas Ornaments by Shelly. I just couldn't resist!! I live next door in Idaho, down in the southeastern corner. Right now we're getting a lovely mix of sleet and snow. It's perfect quilting weather! :D I learned to quilt from Alex Anderson's program Simply Quilts. It has only been in the last three years that I have discovered the joys of classes and my quilting has improved enough that I am actually considering making quilts to try and enter into national shows. I'm far enough along to want to try and get a quilt into a big show but not so far along as to think I'd have any shot at prizes.
I should be downstairs finishing up Christmas gifts and instead I'm in here goofing off. I can't seem to help myself. You ladies seem like such a friendly group!
