Welcome from beautiful western North Carolina. My 3 sons are in their 30s and 40s, but while they were growing up, I didn't have time to sew because I also taught school, as well as attending all their school functions and sports events. I sewed from the time I was a young girl until sons came along. When I retired from teaching school, I took quilting classes at the local community college. I have enjoyed quilting, although I haven't done much in the past couple of years. Hope you learn lots here!
