I was always the artist in my family and I won many ribbons with my quilts over the years. But now being disable, I do stumble sometimes with the fabric and what pattern should I use. I am mostly doing charity quilts. I can't just slap any fabric together like other in the group are able to do. I strive to to the best of my ability that God gave me. It is so frustrating. I do have friends that I send out suggestions of what to make with fabric I was given. I am hoping to hear back from them soon. Otherwise, I will be posting a question on QB. Take any advice as advice not criticism. Sometimes the light bulb is working and other times, it is like being in the dark and I need to reach out and get some advice. You are so lucky to have a sister that has a lot of talent. I would LOVE to connect with someone who could help me get on track when I get stuck in the mud. Hang in there and remember that quilting is a hobby that should always be so enjoyable. Best wishes and hugs from a fellow quilter who's Great Great Grandfathers were born in England but migrated to America in the middle of the 1800s.
