I consider myself a newbie to quilting even though I have been quilting the old fashion way .. My mother would quilt some but she would put a flat sheet down then the batting then the quit top and just use yarn to tie it off.Then she would fold the sheet to the front to bind it off. Now i have done many quilts that way.
I want to learn to paper piece, Free motion quilt and learn to appliqué better than i do. I am learning from ladies here on the board and though you tube. I would love a quilting mom if there is any left. Thank you for this site. it is a wonderful board. I need to get a sewing machine for mine needs to go into the shop and I have been borrowing one.
