I am WMUTeach, newly retired but still working part-time by choice. I have been a sewer since I was 6. I had a very brave mother who allowed me to use her machine at that age. I was always a fabric crafter and garment maker until my sister-in-law passed away and I took her tools, stash an unfinished projects so I could continue her tradition of making quilts for special family occasions. Sixteen years plus later, I only make quilts and on a rare occasion American Girl doll clothes. I believe this is my 5 year or maybe 6 year with the swap and I am madly in love with 2.5 inch squares.
Welcome newbies and hello swapping friends from previous years. Any you lurkers, join us. It is fun, relatively painless and what a birthday we have each year!
