Hi Beth and welcome from Peoria, Arizona. I make blankets for shelters here in AZ. My project is called the Quilted Critter Project. PM me if you would like more info on it. I would dearly love to have other quilters willing to contribute to the cause! I am also a new quilter. It sounds like you are into all kinds of fun things. I look forward to seeing pictures of your work. I don't have any up yet because I am so new to quilting. You will love it here!
