Happy to be quilting again!
Hi all! I'm glad to join this active group of quilters! I quilted a lot in my 20s and 30s, but health, a damaged thumb and a very busy life got in the way, and I put away my quilting books, my fabrics and tools until just recently. Now I'm in my 60s, still busy but not so much, and I pulled out all the quilting stuff just recently. Although not a beginner, I'm not one of the better quilters out there. I have completed quite a few wallhangings, small quilts, and lots of quiltwear a la Virginia Avery and Jean Ray Laury. I love applique as it is a little more forgiving. Who's to know if that butterfly wing was meant to dimple in like that or not? :-)
I'm looking forward to browsing my way through the forums, especially the Photos section. Thanks for this delightful opportunity to hang out with a bunch of people who know the difference between "the cruddy scissors" and "the fabric scissors."
