Welcome from Manitoba-Canada. I grew up in country setting been living in capital city started sewing clothes for myself, when my mother passed away, I felt very alone only girl in family, thought I owed her for me to least dab into
quilting and haven't ever left quilting.. Internet/online has much too offer, Missouri quilt, Eleanor burns, connecting threads, all your quilt show vendors, everyone is so willing to help.. But, don't ever feel you are less a quilter than another by comparing.. Each person develops at her own pace, and with her own taste.. Don't measure yourself to others, measure yourself through your own progress and style.
