I had been googling different quilting topics and it kept connecting me to this board. I had to join.

I've been quilting for a few years. I have given all but one quilting away, the one I kept is on my lap right now...but I will have to put it away soon since it is a Christmas quilt.

All five of my daughters quilt and just last night I bought two 9 1/2 poles for my quilt frame so I can handquilt my oldest daughter's wedding quilt. Just need to get the husband to drill the holes in the ends for the hardware.

I have three sons as well but they aren't into quilting (yet?)

I'm attaching the pic of the wedding quilt. It is a pattern I found on line that is fashioned after Jane Austen's quilt. The center medallion is a buffalo because that is my daughter's new last name.
