I had never had a quilt; but in 2004 was diagnosed with an incurable form of leukemia. It is a slow one, so the only realy problem I have right now is fatigue and a compromised immune system. I was told that I should try to protect myself as best I could during cold and flu season; and decided the best way would be to stay home more. In late summer 2005 I decided that I should take a few lessons to learn to quilt, instead of just dragging out my sewing machine for hemming my husband's jeans. Since then, he has bought me a Janome machine that has some of the nicer features that benefits a quilter, and it has been an enjoyable experience. I don't spend alot of time at it; but do enjoy it. This weekend, I purchased fabric to make quilts for our twin great nieces that will be arriving around the first of June. Will post when they are done.
Happy Quilting Everyone!
