well I've always sewn. made scarfs, then embroidered things. then made clothing for myself and my son. Then later on made aprons, coats and jackets and kitchen items and such. then tried quilts. first one was made of four patches sewn together and batting placed inside. Then put together with a zig zag stitch, sort of quilt as you go. Was a reversible queen size. put buttons on each side of the four patches too. Made a big puffy type quilt. Not my style now at all though.
