Welcome from northeast Nebraska. Don't feel badly; I have been piecing quilts since the 80's and the only one I own is the one I made for my mother's 90th b'day and got back when she passed 4 yrs ago. Have blocks sewn together for three different quilts and now that I am retired, hope to get them put together. Also purchased a Viking machine & Inspira frame more than 18 mos ago, but it isn't even set up to use yet. Have made and given MANY quilts away as gifts/raffle prizes. I'll still comsider myself a quilter!!
You'll enjoy this board immensely as we have the same love.
