What wonderful memories of grandmothers and quilting many of you have.

There are no quilters in my family except myself but my grandmother was a tailoress by profession and taught my mother to sew. Mum made most of our clothes growing up and never ventured away from garment sewing but she was a very artistic person and she passed that on to me in various ways. It was that love of colour and design that drew me to quilting and I so wish I still had that old Singer treadle that mum used to sew on.
