Hi all. I made my first quilt in 1978 using denim squares from old jeans. I traced around a cardboard template and cut them out with scissors. The batting is polyester and the quilt is tied with red yarn. My skills have advanced since my first quilt.
I just completed a tumbler quilt using many of the squares I acquired from this swap. Each finished tumbler measures 1'' x 1.5'' and the quilt has almost 7000 tumblers. It will be hanging in a quilt show later this month so I will hopefully get a picture to post.
I work full time in health care, specifically oncology. I have 3 quilting kitties: Frank, Benny and Louis.
Oh, I almost forgot, my son's name is Patrick.
