I've been watching this site for awhile . . . and I cannot compete with any of you ladies . . .but then I never view quilting as a competition; it's therapy :lol:
I love playing with color and with patterns. I've made my own patterns and I've used traditional patterns. Since I began to seriously consider quilting as the hobby I can do forever (this was maybe 5 years ago), I've averaged 2 quilts a year . . .
Originally, my quilts were tied, not actually quilted. The last few, however, I have branched out and hand quilted. I'm not very good at it; but it does pass those long cold winter evenings!
I love looking at the pictures everyone posts on this site! It's great to find people that understand that sometimes ya just gotta sew!!!
